Monitoring Winter Stress Vulnerability of High-Latitude Understory Vegetation Using Intraspecific Trait Variability and Remote Sensing Approaches
(Journal article, 2020)In this study, we focused on three species that have proven to be vulnerable to winter stress: Empetrum nigrum, Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Hylocomium splendens. Our objective was to determine plant traits suitable for ... -
More frequent extreme climate events stabilize reindeer population dynamics
(Journal article, 2019)treme climate events often cause population crashes but are difficult to account for in population-dynamic studies. Especially in long-lived animals, density dependence and demography may induce lagged impacts of ... -
More stable productivity of semi natural grasslands than sown pastures in a seasonally dry climate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)In the Neotropics the predominant pathway to intensify productivity is generally thought to be to convert grasslands to sown pastures, mostly in monoculture. This article examines how above-ground net primary productivity ... -
The Morphometric structure of the Larix Gmellinii recruitment at the northern limit of its range in the forest-tundra ecotone
(Peer reviewed, 2013)The goal of the research presented herein is the investigation of the morphometric and age parameters of the recruitment of forest stands formed by Larix gmellinii, as an indicator of trends in the dynamics of the ... -
Mortality of Atlantic salmon after catch and release angling: assessment of a recreational Atlantic salmon fishery in a changing climate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Human activities have the potential to accelerate population-level decline by contributing to climate warming and decreasing the capacity of species to survive warming temperatures. Here we build a predictive model to test ... -
Moth Outbreaks Reduce Decomposition in Subarctic Forest Soils
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Tree mortality from insect infestations can significantly reduce carbon storage in forest soils. In subarctic birch forests (Betula pubescens), ecosystem C cycling is largely affected by recurrent outbreaks of defoliating ... -
Moult location and diet of auks in the North Sea inferred from coupled light-based and isotope-based geolocation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Many pelagic seabirds moult their feathers while at sea, which is an energetically costly behaviour. Mortality rates during moult can be high, so spatial and trophic ecology during this critical period is important for ... -
Movement and heart rate in the Scandinavian brown bear (Ursus arctos)
(Journal article, 2019)Background: Understanding animal movement facilitates better management and conservation. The link between movement and physiology holds clues to the basic drivers of animal behaviours. In bears, heart rate increases with ... -
Movement patterns of juvenile and adult noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) in a small stream, determined by radiotelemetry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This article reports on the results of the first radiotelemetric field study comparing the movement patterns of juvenile and adult noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) over the 24-h cycle. During our study (in summer, outside ... -
Movements of dead fish in rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: The aim of telemetry studies is often to determine the fate and mortality rates of ish. A moving ish is usually regarded as alive and a long-term stationary ish as dead—and the site where it became stationary ... -
Moving in the Anthropocene: Global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Multi-colony tracking of two pelagic seabirds with contrasting flight capability illustrates how windscapes shape migratory movements at an ocean-basin scale
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Migration is a common trait among many animals allowing the exploitation of spatiotemporally variable resources. It often implies high energetic costs to cover large distances, for example between breeding and wintering ... -
Multi-colony tracking reveals spatio-temporal variation in carry-over effects between breeding success and winter movements in a pelagic seabird
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Carry-over effects, whereby events in one season have consequences in subsequent seasons, have important demographic implications. Although most studies examine carry-over effects across 2 seasons in single populations, ... -
Multi-criteria decision analysis and cost-benefit analysis: comparing alternative frameworks for integrated valuation of ecosystem services
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) methods has been promoted as an alternative approach to monetary economic valuation of ecosystem services in Cost-Benefit Analysis framework (CBA). We discuss the potential of MCDA ... -
Multi-locus phylogenetic analysis of lophiostomatoid fungi motivates a broad concept of Lophiostoma and reveals nine new species
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Recent studies on the fungal families Lophiostomataceae and Lophiotremataceae (Pleosporales) have provided varying phylogenetic and taxonomic results concerning constituent genera and species. By adding DNA sequences of ... -
Multiannual effects of induced plant defenses: Are defended plants good or bad neighbors?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Defenses induced by herbivore feeding or phytohormones such as methyl jasmonate (MeJA) can affect growth, reproduction, and herbivory, not only on the affected individual but also in its neighboring plants. Here, we report ... -
Multilevel processes and cultural adaptation: examples from past and present small-scale societies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The last two decades have seen a proliferation of research frameworks that emphasise the importance of understanding adaptive processes that happen at different levels. We contribute to this growing body of literature by ... -
Multiple paternity promotes genetic diversity in captive breeding of a freshwater mussel
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Captive breeding can be an important supplement to habitat restoration in the Conservation of threatened species. Careful choice of breeding regimes and genetic monitoring are essential to maintain genetic integrity and ... -
Multiple recolonization routes towards the north: Population history of the Fennoscandian red fox (Vulpes vulpes)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Understanding the response of boreal species to past climate warming can help to predict future responses to climate change. In the Northern Hemisphere, the distribution and abundance of northern populations have been ... -
Multiple stakeholders’ perspectives of marine social ecological systems, a case study on the Barents Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Barents Sea ecosystem components and services are under pressure from climate change and other anthropogenic impacts. Following an Ecosystem-based management approach, multiple simultaneous pressures are addressed ...
