Lead exposure in brown bears is linked to environmental levels and the distribution of moose kills
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Lead (Pb) is heterogeneously distributed in the environment and multiple sources like Pb ammunition and fossil fuel combustion can increase the risk of exposure in wildlife. Brown bears (Ursus arctos) in Sweden have higher ... -
Learning from scientific literature: Can indicators for measuring success be standardized in “on the ground” restoration?
(Journal article, 2020)The Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) Primer identifies key ecosystem attributes for evaluating restoration outcome. Broad attribute categories could be necessary due to the large variety of restoration projects, but ... -
Learning from the past to predict the future: using archaeological findings and GPS data to quantify reindeer sensitivity to anthropogenic disturbance in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013) -
Legacies of Historical Exploitation of Natural Resources Are More Important Than Summer Warming for Recent Biomass Increases in a Boreal–Arctic Transition Region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Eurasian forest cover at high northern latitudes (> 67 N) has increased in recent decades due to stimulatory effects of global warming, but other factors may be important. The objective of this study is to compare the ... -
The legacy of forest disturbance on stream ecosystem functioning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. Forest clearance is a pervasive disturbance worldwide, but many of its impacts are regarded as transient, diminishing in intensity as forest recovers. However, forests can take decades to centuries to recover after ... -
Legal implications of range expansions in a terrestrial carnivore: the case of the golden jackal (Canis aureus) in Europe
(Journal article, 2015)Due to global environmental changes, species are appearing more frequently in places where they have not previously occurred, and this trend is expected to continue. Such range expansions can create considerable challenges ... -
Leukocyte coping capacity as a tool to assess capture- and handling-induced stress in Scandinavian brown bears (Ursus arctos)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Brown bears (Ursus arctos) are often captured and handled for research and management purposes. Although the techniques used are potentially stressful for the animals and might have detrimental and long-lasting consequences, ... -
Leukocyte coping capacity: an integrative parameter for wildlife welfare within conservation interventions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Wildlife management, conservation interventions and wildlife research programs often involve capture, manipulation and transport of wild animals. Widespread empirical evidence across various vertebrate taxa shows that ... -
Life-history attributes and resource dynamics determine intraspecific home-range sizes in Carnivora
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Home ranges capture a fundamental aspect of animal ecology, resulting from interactions between metabolic demands and resource availability. Yet, the understanding of their emergence is currently limited by lack of ... -
Life-history evolution under fluctuating density-dependent selection and the adaptive alignment of pace-of-life syndromes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We present a novel perspective on life-history evolution that combines recent theoretical advances in fluctuating density-dependent selection with the notion of pace-of-life syndromes (POLSs) in behavioural ecology. These ... -
Light-level geolocators reveal spatial variations in interactions between northern fulmars and fisheries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Seabird−fishery interactions are a common phenomenon of conservation concern. Here, we highlight how light-level geolocators provide promising opportunities to study these interactions. By examining raw light data, it ... -
Limited domestic introgression in a final refuge of the wild pigeon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Domesticated animals have been culturally and economically important throughout history. Many of their ancestral lineages are extinct or genetically en dangered following hybridization with domesticated relatives. ... -
Limited evidence for genetic differentiation or adaptation in two amphibian species across replicated rural–urban gradients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Urbanization leads to complex environmental changes and poses multiple challenges to organisms. Amphibians are highly susceptible to the effects of urbanization, with land use conversion, habitat destruction, and degradation ... -
Limits to the accurate and generalizable use of soundscapes to monitor biodiversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Although eco-acoustic monitoring has the potential to deliver biodiversity insight on vast scales, existing analytical approaches behave unpredictably across studies. We collated 8,023 audio recordings with paired manual ... -
Linking embryonic temperature with adultreproductive investment in Atlantic salmonSalmo salar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)The expression of fitness-related traits, such as egg and gonad size, often varies among habitats and exhibits clinal variation along climatic and latitudinal gradients. However, the mechanisms allowing such variations ... -
Linking green infrastructure to urban heat and human health risk mitigation in Oslo, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The predicted extreme temperatures of globalwarming aremagnified in cities due to the urban heat island effect. Even if the target for average temperature increase in the Paris Climate Agreement is met, temperatures during ... -
Linking public participation in scientific research to the indicators and needs of international environmental agreements
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Different monitoring approaches collect data that can measure progress toward achieving global environmental indicators. These indicators can: (1) Audit management actions; (2) Inform policy choices; and (3) Raise awareness ... -
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 ...
