Bioenergetic consequences of warming rivers to adult Atlantic salmon Salmo salar during their spawning migration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)1. Climate change poses a challenge to wild fishes, yet little is known about the behavioural use and metabolic consequences of thermally heterogeneous water encountered by wild salmon during their energetically demanding ... -
Biotic and abiotic determinants of the ascent behaviour of adult Atlantic salmon transiting passable waterfalls
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The spawning migration of Atlantic salmon has been characterized by tracking salmon carrying electronic tags as they ascend rivers, but still little is known about how natural obstacles such as waterfalls influence migratory ... -
Bird collisions with power lines: State of the art and priority areas for research
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Transmission and distribution electricity grids are expanding rapidly worldwide, with significant negative impacts on biodiversity and, in particular, on birds. We performed a systematic review of the literature available ... -
Bird population declines and species turnover are changing the acoustic properties of spring soundscapes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Natural sounds, and bird song in particular, play a key role in building and maintaining our connection with nature, but widespread declines in bird populations mean that the acoustic properties of natural soundscapes may ... -
Birds of different feather flock together - genetic structure of Taiga Bean Goose in Central Scandinavia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)During their flightless summer moult, Taiga Bean Geese Anser fabalis fabalis gather at communal moulting sites. Individuals from the Nord-Trøndelag breeding area in Norway have been observed to join with local individuals ... -
Black-legged kittiwakes as messengers of Atlantification in the Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate warming is rapidly altering marine ecosystems towards a more temperate state on the European side of the Arctic. However, this “Atlantification” has rarely been confirmed, as long-term datasets on Arctic marine ... -
Blood may buy goodwill: no evidence for a positive relationship between legal culling and poaching in Wisconsin
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)ecology, environmental science -
Body shape and fin size in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar): effects of temperature during embryogenesis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Temperature during egg incubation and early development influences later life stages of fishes, potentially influencing survival. Throughout its distribution, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758) have experienced ... -
Born to be wild: effects of rearing density and environmental enrichment on stress, welfare, and smolt migration in hatchery-reared Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Hatchery-reared salmonids released into the wild generally have poor survivability compared with wild conspecifics. To assess potential hatchery rearing improvements, behavioral and physiological effects of reducing animal ... -
The breeding ecology of Broad-billed Sandpipers in northern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The breeding ecology of the Broad-billed Sandpiper Calidris falcinellus was investigated in a long-term study in Finnmark, north Norway during 1993–2019. Nests were mostly located and monitored during the incubation period. ... -
Breeding ecology of Kori Bustard Ardeotis kori strunthiunculus in the Serengeti National Park
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The breeding ecology of the Kori Bustard Ardeotis kori strunthiunculus was studied in the plains of the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania in 2014 and 2015. Random transects were used to search for male courtship displays, ... -
Bruk av miljø-DNA for deteksjon av arter
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Tradisjonell overvåkning av storsalamandere kan ofte være utfordrende da dyrene kan ha lav fangbarhet ved f.eks. lav temperatur og etter forplantning. Overvåkning av mange lokaliteter er svært tidkrevende, og i perioder ... -
Caching Behavior of Large Prey by Eurasian Lynx: Quantifying the Anti-Scavenging Benefits
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)caching; Capreolus capreolus; carrion; Eurasian lynx; Lynx lynx; Norway; predation; roe deer; scavenging -
A camera trap-based assessment of climate-driven phenotypic plasticity of seasonal moulting in an endangered carnivore
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)For many species, the ability to rapidly adapt to changes in seasonality is essential for long-term survival. In the Arctic, seasonal moulting is a key life-history event that provides year-round camouflage and thermal ... -
Captive breeding of European freshwater mussels as aconservation tool: A review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Freshwater mussels are declining throughout their range. Their importantecological functions along with insufficient levels of natural recruitment haveprompted captive breeding for population augmentation and questions ... -
Caribou and reindeer migrations in the changing Arctic
(Journal article, 2021)Caribou and reindeer, Rangifer tarandus, are the most numerous and socio-ecologically important terrestrial species in the Arctic. Their migrations are directly and indirectly affected by the seasonal nature of the ... -
Challenges of managing a European brown bear population; lessons from Sweden, 1943–2013
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Adaptive management’, which has been defined as the repeated iteration between management action, scientific assessment and revised management action, leading to a strengthened foundation for management, is required by ... -
Changes in timing of seasonal peak photosynthetic activity in northern ecosystems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Seasonality in photosynthetic activity is a critical component of seasonal carbon, water and energy cycles in the Earth system. This characteristic is a consequence of plant’s adaptive evolutionary processes to a given set ... -
Changes in wetland habitat use by waterbirds wintering in Czechia are related to diet and distribution changes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. Understanding species habitat use and factors affecting changes in their distribu-tions are necessary to promote the conservation of any biological community. We evaluated the changes in wetland use of the non- breeding ...
