Linking social values of wild reindeer to planning and management options in Southern Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Norway is home to the last remaining populations of wild mountain reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) in Europe. Concerns over anthropogenic and natural drivers have led to change in the management regime from a ... -
Linking visitors’ spatial preferences to sustainable visitor management in a Norwegian national park
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The increasing numbers of tourists visiting national parks contribute to new opportunities as well as challenges. Alpine and Arctic national parks in Northern Europe are key habitats for vulnerable species such as wild ... -
Little impact of over-winter parasitism on a free-ranging ungulate in the high Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)1. Macroparasites have a central place in wildlife ecology because they have the potential to regulate host populations through effects on reproduction and/or survival. However, there remains a paucity of studies that have ... -
Living with human encroachment: Status and distribution of Green Peafowl in northern stronghold of Thailand
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Green Peafowl have declined significantly across much of their historical range mostly due to habitat loss and degradation following intensive agricultural expansion, logging and infrastructure development. In Thailand, ... -
Local buffer mechanisms for population persistence
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Assessing and predicting the persistence of populations is essential for the conservation and control of species. Here, we argue that local mechanisms require a better conceptual synthesis to facilitate a more holistic ... -
Local land use associated with socio-economic development in six arctic regions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The socioeconomic causes of land use change are complex. They are highly context dependent, but most often studied through case studies. Here, we use a quasi-experimental paired block design to investigate whether better ... -
Local opposition against high-voltage grids: public responses to agency-caused science policy trolls
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)High-voltage (hV) transmission grids are projects of societal importance that potentially have controversial social and environmental impacts. Former research shows that public opposition is sparked by the perception of ... -
Local Perceptions of Ecosystem Services Across Multiple Ecosystem Types in Spain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)ecosystem service diversity; governance; local communities; place-based approach; socio-cultural valuation; social perception -
Local perceptions of jaguar conservation and environmental justice in Goiás, Matto Grosso and Roraima states (Brazil)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Wildlife conservation often leads to various conflicts with other human activities, resulting in concerns about the justice of conservation. Although species' protection e notably of large carnivores e can have negative ... -
Local prey shortages drive foraging costs and breeding success in a declining seabird, the Atlantic puffin
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. As more and more species face anthropogenic threats, understanding the causes of population declines in vulnerable taxa is essential. However, long-term datasets, ideal to identify lasting or indirect effects on fitness ... -
Local resources, linear elements and mass-flowering crops determine bumblebee occurrences in moderately intensified farmlands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)There is consensus that land-use change is a main driver behind the recent declines of many pollinator populations in Europe. However, it is still not adequately understood how the local resource quality and landscape ... -
Locating human-wildlife interactions: landscape constructions andresponses to large carnivore conservation in India and Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)People’s reactions to large carnivores take many forms, ranging from support and coexistence to resistance and conflict. While these reactions are the outcome of many different factors, in this paper we specifically ... -
Long-distance Eurasian lynx dispersal – a prospect for connecting native and reintroduced populations in Central Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Dispersal is a key process for the maintenance of intraspecifc genetic diversity by ensuring gene fow within and between populations. Despite the ongoing expansion of large carnivores in Europe, lynx populations remain ... -
Long-distance hikers and their inner journeys: On motives and pilgrimage to Nidaros, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Several historic pilgrimage routes called Saint Olav Ways terminate at the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. All have status as European Cultural Routes. Most popular is the 643 km Gudbrandsdal route from Oslo. The ... -
Long-distance plant dispersal to North Atlantic islands:colonization routes and founder effect
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Long-distance dispersal (LDD) processes influence the founder effect on islands.We use genetic data for 25 Atlantic species and similarities among regional floras to analyse colonization, and test whether the genetic ... -
A long-established invasive species alters the functioning of benthic biofilms in lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Invasive species often transform environmental conditions, exclude native spe-cies and alter ecosystem functioning, including key ecosystem processes un-derpinning nutrient and energy cycles. However, such ... -
Long-lasting effects of logging on beetles in hollow oaks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)There is growing evidence that biodiversity is important for ecosystem functions. Thus, identification of habitat requirements essential for current species richness and abundance to persist is crucial. Hollow oaks (Quercus ... -
Long-term annual and spatial variation of polygyny in the white-throated dipper (Cinclus cinclus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Mating strategies are key components in the fitness of organisms, and notably in birds the occurrence of monogamy versus polygyny has attracted wide interest. We address this by a very comprehensive dataset (2899 breeding ... -
Long-term community responses to droughts in the early modern period: the case study of Terrassa, Spain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)New challenges posed by global environmental change have motivated scholars to pay growing attention to historical long-term strategies to deal with climate extremes. We aim to understand long-term trends in community ... -
Long-Term Consequences of Water Pumping on the Ecosystem Functioning of Lake Sekšu, Latvia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cultural eutrophication, the process by which pollution due to human activity speeds up natural eutrophication, is a widespread and consequential issue. Here, we present the 85-year history of a small, initially Lobelia–Isoëtes ...
