Interactions between local population density and limited habitat resources determine movements of juvenile Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Competition for limited resources and the resulting density-dependent processes are key factors in driving stream salmonid population dynamics. Here we test for the combined effects of density and shelter availability on ... -
Interactive effects of body mass changes and species-specific morphology on flight behavior of chick-rearing Antarctic fulmarine petrels under diurnal wind patterns
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)For procellariiform seabirds, wind and morphology are crucial determinants of flight costs and flight speeds. During chick-rearing,parental seabirds commute frequently to provision their chicks, and their body mass ... -
Interactive spatial planning of urban green infrastructure – Retrofitting green roofs where ecosystem services are most needed in Oslo
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Spatial multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is increasingly being used to inform urban green infrastructure planning. We explore the use of modern cloud computing technologies (Google Earth Engine) to facilitate public ... -
Interdisciplinary design of a fish ramp using migration routes analysis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The study presents several steps of a fish ramp geometry optimization performed with a 3D numerical model DualSPHysics, which is based on the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The optimization process led to ... -
Intermediate ecosystem services: An empty concept?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
International assessment of priority environmental issues for land-based and offshore wind energy development
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Non-technical summary. A substantial increase in wind energy deployment worldwide is required to help achieve international targets for decreasing global carbon emissions andlimiting the impacts of climate change. In ... -
International wildlife law: understanding and enhancing its role in conservation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
Interpreting ‘favourable conservation status’ for large carnivores in Europe: how many are needed and how many are wanted?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The EU Habitats Directive is a key biodiversity conservation instrument. It contains legal obligations for the 28 EU member states in order to safeguard a ‘favourable conservation status’ (FCS) for selected species and ... -
Intersexual conflict over seed size is stronger in more outcrossed populations of a mixed-mating plant
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Intersexual conflict over maternal resource allocation to offspring can lead to the evolution of imprinted genes with parentof- origin–specific expression. However, the precise mechanism involved in the evolution of ... -
Intraspecific differences in spectral reflectance curves as indicators of reduced vitality in high-arctic plants
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
Introduced European smelt (Osmerus eperlanus) affects food web and fish community in a large Norwegian lake
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Invasive and introduced fishes can affect recipient ecosystems and native species via altered competitive and predatory interactions, potentially leading to top-down and bottom-up cascading impacts. Here, we describe a ... -
Introduction of Mysis relicta (Mysida) reduces niche segregation between deep-water Arctic charr morphs
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Niche diversification of polymorphic Arctic charr can be altered by multiple anthropogenic stressors. The opossum-shrimp (Mysis relicta) was introduced to compensate for reduced food Resources for fish following hydropower ... -
Introgression from farmed escapees affects the full life cycle of wild Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)After a half a century of salmon farming, we have yet to understand how the influx of genes from farmed escapees affects the full life history of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the wild. Using scale samples of over ... -
Introgression of non-native mitochondrial haplotypes from farmed to wild Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Farmed salmon escape and interbreed with wild Atlantic salmon on a large scale. We studied introgression of mitochondrial haplotypes from farmed Atlantic salmon originating from the Eastern Atlantic phylogenetic group to ... -
An Invited Reply to: A Comment on: Migrating silver eels return from the sea to the river of origin after a false start (2021) by Tambets M et al

Is green space associated with reduced crime? A national-scale study from the Global South
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Assumptions about the link between green space and crime mitigation are informed by literature that overwhelmingly originates in the Global North. Little is known about the association between green spaces and crime in the ... -
Is it worthwhile scaring geese to alleviate damage to crops? – An experimental study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Summary 1.Increasing population sizes of geese are the cause of numerous agricultural conflicts in many regions of the Northern Hemisphere. Scaring is often used as a tool to chase geese away from fields, either as a means ... -
Is subarctic forest advance able to keep pace with climate change?
(Journal article, 2020)Recent climate warming and scenarios for further warming have led to expectations of rapid movement of ecological boundaries. Here we focus on the circumarctic forest–tundra ecotone (FTE), which represents an important ... -
Islands of ice: Glacier-dwelling metazoans form regionally distinct populations despite extensive periods of deglaciation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Aim: Glaciers cover considerable portion of land and host diverse life forms fromsingle-celled organisms to invertebrates. However, the determinants of diversityand community composition of these organisms remain underexplored. ... -
