A joint climate and nature cure: A transformative change perspective
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Climate change has considerably dominated science-policy dialogue, public debate, and subsequently environmental policies since the three ‘‘Rio Conventions’’ were born. This has led to practically independent courses of ... -
Joint responsibility in the development of effective wind-turbine collision-reducing solutions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)With the rapid acceleration of wind energy development there is a growing need to meet the consequences this has for the natural environment. Failing to mitigate environmental impacts is an important cause of conflict in ... -

Key insights for the future of urban ecosystem services research
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Understanding the dynamics of urban ecosystem services is a necessary requirement for adequate planning, management, and governance of urban green infrastructure. Through the three-year Urban Biodiversity and Ecosystem ... -
Key to hysterioid fungi on bark and wood in Scandinavia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The lack of useful determination keys is often a major obstacle for naming species of Ascomycota, especially for the amateur mycologist. One group of fungi in need of a key are species of Dothideomycetes with hysterioid ... -
Killer whale movements on the Norwegian shelf are associated with herring density
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Killer whales Orcinus orca have a cosmopolitan distribution with a broad diet rang ing from fish to marine mammals. In Norway, killer whales are regularly observed feeding on overwintering Norwegian spring-spawning (NSS) ... -
Killing with kindness: when hunters want to let you know they care
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Care’ is a term that hunters increasingly apply to diverse practices pertaining to their interactions with wildlife. In this article, we investigated the extent and durability of hunters’ use of care language, including ... -
The King of the Forest: Local Knowledge About European Brown Bears (Ursus arctos) and Implications for Their Conservation in Contemporary Western Macedonia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)From a conservation point of view, Macedonia’s brown bear (Ursus arctos) population appears to be a key link in the distribution of one of Europe’s largest brown bear populations, the Dinaric-Pindos population. The lack ... -
Knock-on effects of environmental influences during embryonic development of ecothermic vertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Environmental factors influencing parents or offspring during embryogenesis can have knock-on effects at later life stages of the offspring. These effects may prepare the progeny for conditions that they may encounter as ... -
Labeling Farmed Seafood: A review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Food labels help consumers choose products in line with their food attitudes and preferences. As the market for farmed seafood grows, it is important for producers to meet consumer demand for credence characteristics like ... -
Lack of Cascading Effects of Eurasian Lynx Predation on Roe Deer to Soil and Plant Nutrients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study examines the extent to which above-ground trophic processes such as large carnivore predation on wild ungulates can cause cascading effects through the provision of carrion resources to below-ground ecosystem ... -
Lack of genetic structure in greylag goose (Anser anser) populations along the European Atlantic flyway
(Journal article, 2015)Greylag goose populations are steadily increasing in north-western Europe. Although individuals breeding in the Netherlands have been considered mainly sedentary birds, those fromScandinavia or northern Germany fly towards ... -
Landscape relatedness: detecting contemporary fine-scalespatial structure in wild populations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Context Methods for detecting contemporary, finescale population genetic structure in continuous populations are scarce. Yet such methods are vital for ecological and conservation studies, particularly under a changing ... -
Landscape selection by migratory geese: Implications for hunting organisation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Over the last decades, many wild goose populations have increased significantly and are now causing conflicts with socioeconomic and biological interests. To mitigate impacts of rapid population increases, population control ... -
Large carnivore conservation and traditional pastoralism: A case study on bear–reindeer predation mitigation measures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)While wildlife and cultural preservation goals can be either complimentary orcounteractive, the goals of large carnivore conservation and traditional pastoralist lifestyles are often at odds. Livestock depredation can ... -
Large herbivore migration plasticity along environmental gradients in Europe: life-history traits modulate forage effects
