Impacts of snow season on ground-ice accumulation, soil frost andprimary productivity in a grassland of sub-Arctic Norway
(Peer reviewed, 2015)Europe’s and the World’s northernmost agriculture is very vulnerable to harsh overwintering conditions. It is important from both an economic and societal standpoint to have accurate methods of predicting the severity ... -
Impacts of wild fishes attracted to open-cage salmonid farms in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Salmonid farming affects both the environment and other industries, with impacts of wild fish attracted to fish farms being a major concern. Here, we summarized existing knowledge on the impacts of such aggregations around ... -
Implementation of the first adaptive management plan for a European migratory waterbird population: The case of the Svalbard pink-footed goose Anser brachyrhynchus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)An International Species Management Plan for the Svalbard population of the pink-footed goose was adopted under theAgreement on theConservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds in 2012, the first case of adaptive ... -
Implications of fisheries impacts to seabed biodiversity and ecosystem-based management
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
Importance of spatial configuration of deadwood habitats in species conservation
(Peer reviewed, 2019)Komonen and Müller (2018) aimed to inform connectivity conservation of saproxylic (deadwood-dependent) organisms. Out of the many different definitions of connectivity, they focus on structural connectivity and relate it ... -
In situ measurement of salinity during seaward migration of Atlantic salmon post‑smolts using acoustic transmitters with data‑storage capabilities and conventional acoustic transmitters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Development of miniature acoustic transmitters and data-storage tags has provided new insights into ecology of free-ranging aquatic animals. In this study, we used a data-storage-type and a conventional acoustic ... -
Incorporating threat in hotspots and coldspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Spatial prioritization could help target conservation actions directed to maintain both biodiversity and ecosystem services. We delineate hotspots and coldspots of two biodiversity conservation features and five ... -
Increasing water temperatures exacerbate the potential for density dependence in juvenile steelhead
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)We study the potential effects of predicted climate change on the energetic demands of juvenile steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and their consequences for local population size and structure in Idaho, USA. Projected increases ... -
Individual Movement - Sequence Analysis Method (IM-SAM): characterizing spatio-temporal patterns of animal habitat use across landscapes
(Peer reviewed, 2019)We present methodological advances to a recently developed framework to study sequential habitat use by animals using a visually-explicit and tree-based Sequence Analysis Method (SAM), derived from molecular biology and ... -

Individual shark profiling: An innovative and environmentally
(Peer reviewed, 2018)Most shark-induced human fatalities are followed by widespread and unselective culling campaigns that have limited effectiveness and may have high ecological costs for threatened species. The blanket culling strategy ... -
Influence of gear switching on recapture of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in catch-and- release fisheries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Anglers that release Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in recreational fisheries do so with the intention that the fish will survive and contribute to succeeding generations. In some instances, salmon that are released may be ... -
Influences of migration phenology on survival are size-dependent in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Long-distance migratory species can reduce mortality risks by synchronizing the migration event and create confusion by swamping predators with high densities. To reduce confusion, predators are known to primarily select ... -
Influencia de los árboles en la vegetación herbácea de sistemas ganaderos del trópico seco de Nicaragua
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Se estudiaron las características estructurales de tres especies forestales y su efecto sobre la productividad primaria neta aérea y la composición florística de pastizales naturales en el trópico seco de Nicaragua. Las ... -
Institutional challenges in putting ecosystem service knowledge in practice
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The promise that ecosystem service assessments will contribute to better decision-making is not yet proven. We analyse how knowledge on ecosystem services is actually used to inform land and water management in 22 case ... -
Integrating data from different survey types for population monitoring of an endangered species: the case of the Eld’s deer
(Peer reviewed, 2019)Despite its value for conservation decision-making, we lack information on population abundances for most species. Because establishing large-scale monitoring schemes is rarely feasible, statistical methods that combine ... -
Integrating data from multiple sources for insights into demographic processes: Simulation studies and proof of concept for hierarchical change-in-ratio models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Nilsen EB, Strand O (2018) Integrating data from multiple sources for insights into demographic processes: Simulation studies and proof of concept for hierarchical change-in-ratio models. PLoS ONE 13(3): e0194566. ... -
Integument colouration in relation to persistent organic pollutants and body condition in arctic breeding black-legged kittiwakes (Rissa tridactyla)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Vertebrates cannot synthetize carotenoids de novo but have to acquire themthrough their diet. In birds, carotenoids are responsible for the yellow to red colouration of many secondary sexual traits. They are also involved ... -
Intensity of space use reveals conditional sex-specific effects of prey and conspecific density on home range size
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
Interactions between demography and environmental effects are important determinants of population dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Climate change will affect the population dynamics of many species, yet the consequences for the long-term persistence of populations are poorly understood. A major reason for this is that density-dependent feedback effects ...
