Plasma proteomics data from hibernating and active Scandinavian brown bears
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In this article, we present mass-spectrometry based plasma proteomics data from hibernating and active free-ranging Scandinavian brown bears (Ursus arctos). The brown bear hibernates for half the year. Despite obesity when ... -
Plastic Population Effects and Conservative Leaf Traits in a Reciprocal Transplant Experiment Simulating Climate Warming in the Himalayas
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Climate warming poses considerable challenges for alpine plant species, especially for competitively inferior ones with resource-conservative adaptations to cold climates. The Himalayas are warming at rates considerably ... -
Policy Mixes: Aligning instruments for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem service provision
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)“To explain the world of interactions and outcomes occurring at multiple levels, we also have to be willing to deal with complexity instead of rejecting it.” (E. Ostrom 2009 Nobel Prize Lecture) This special issue was ... -
The Political dimensions of illegal wolf hunting: anti-elitism, lack of trust in institutions and acceptance of illegal wolf killing among Norwegian hunters
(Journal article, 2020)Qualitative studies have indicated that the illegal killing of wolves is often attributed a protest dimension. However, we have limited knowledge about the factors that impact this judgement. The present study investigates ... -
Polychlorinated biphenyl exposure and corticosterone levels in seven polar seabird species
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The role of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) on exposure-related endocrine effects has been poorly investigated in wild birds. This is the case for stress hormones including corticosterone (CORT). Some studies have suggested ... -
Pool-Type Fishway Design for a Potamodromous Cyprinid in the Iberian Peninsula: The Iberian Barbel—Synthesis and Future Directions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Iberian barbel (Luciobarbus bocagei) is one of the most common cyprinids in the Iberian Peninsula, whose migratory routes are often hampered by anthropogenic barriers. Fishways might be an effective mitigation measure ... -
Population and distribution of beavers Castor fiber and Castor canadensis in Eurasia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. A century ago, overhunting had reduced Eurasian beaver Castor fiber populations to c. 1200 animals in scattered refugia from France to Mongolia. Reintroductions and natural spread have since restored the species to large ... -
Population densities, vegetation green-up, and plant productivity: impacts on reproductive success and juvenile body mass in reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Global warming is expected to cause earlier springs and increased primary productivity in the Arctic. These changes may improve food availability for Arctic herbivores, but may also have negative effects by generating a ... -
Population fitness has a concave relationship with migration distance in Sanderlings
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)n Focus: Reneerkens, J., Versluijs, T. S. L., Piersma, T., Alves, J. A., Boorman, M., Corse, C., ... Lok, T. (2020). Low fitness at low latitudes: wintering in the tropics in-creases migratory delays and ... -
Population genetics of the wolverine in Finland: the road to recovery?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)After decades, even centuries of persecution, large carnivore populations are widely recovering in Europe. Considering the recent recovery of the wolverine (Gulo gulo) in Finland, our aim was to evaluate genetic variation ... -
Population genomic evidence for plant glacial survival in Scandinavia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Quaternary glaciations have played a major role in shaping the genetic diversity and distribution of plant species. Strong palaeoecological and genetic evidence supports a postglacial recolonization of most plant species ... -
Population recovery of peregrine falcons in central Norway in the 4 decades since the DDT-ban
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The breeding population of peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) in Norway was almost exterminated by the early 1970’s. Long-term monitoring of breeding pairs has been conducted since 1976 up to present. Peregrine falcons ... -
Population status, breeding biology and diet of Norwegian Great Cormorants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Two subspecies of the Great Cormorant breed in Norway, the continental Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis in the south, along the Skagerrak coast, and the marine P. c. carbo from central Norway and northwards. Here we review the ... -
Position choice and swimming costs of juvenile Atlantic salmon salmo salar in turbulent flow
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Swimming costs (SCs) for fish have been shown to be affected by turbulence. However, this idea has not yet been implemented in habitat models, which often represent hydraulics using water velocity averaged over time and ... -
Positioning aquatic animals with acoustic transmitters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Geolocating aquatic animals with acoustic tags has been ongoing for decades, relying on the detection of acoustic signals at multiple receivers with known positions to calculate a 2D or 3D position, and ultimately ... -
Positioning of aquatic animals based on time-of-arrival and random walk models using YAPS (Yet Another Positioning Solver)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Aquatic positional telemetry offers vast opportunities to study in vivo behaviour of wild animals, but there is room for improvement in the data quality provided by current procedures for estimating positions. Here we ... -
Positive impacts of important bird and biodiversity areas on wintering waterbirds under changing temperatures throughout Europe and North Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Migratory waterbirds require an effectively conserved cohesive network of wetland areas throughout their range and life-cycle. Under rapid climate change, protected area (PA) networks need to be able to accommodate ... -
Post-1980 shifts in the sensitivity of boreal tree growth to North Atlantic Ocean dynamics and seasonal climate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The mid-20th century changes in North Atlantic Ocean dynamics, e.g. slow-down of the Atlantic meridional overturning thermohaline circulation (AMOC), have been considered as early signs of tipping points in the Earth climate ... -
Potential for increased connectivity between differentiated wolverine populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Information on genetic population structure provides important knowledge for species conservation. Yet, few studies combine extensive genetic data to evaluate the structure and population dynamics of transboundary populations. ... -
Potential natural immunization against atherosclerosis in hibernating bears
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Brown bears (Ursus arctos) hibernate for 5–6 months during winter, but despite kidney insufciency, dyslipidemia and inactivity they do not seem to develop atherosclerosis or cardiovascular disease (CVD). IgM antibodies ...
