AS WE SEE IT Reared fish, farmed escapees and wild fish stocks-a triangle of pathogen transmission of concern to Mediterranean aquaculture management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Although aquaculture in the Mediterranean is a relatively young industry, finfish dis eases have been reported to cause considerable problems and mortalities among the farmed stocks. In general, the farming activity and ... -
Assessing climatic and spatial variables influencing zooplankton richness for space-for-time predictions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. The macroecological drivers of freshwater diversity are accredited geographical, spatial and climatic variables, but also to productivity, ecosystem age and landscape history. Locally diversity is also influenced ... -
Assessing ecosystem services from multifunctional trees in pastures using Bayesian belief networks
(Journal article, 2016) -
Assessing incidental bycatch of seabirds in Norwegian coastal commercial fisheries: Empirical and methodological lessons
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)With diminishing seabird populations and little knowledge on incidental bycatch in fisheries in the Northeast Atlantic, this study aimed to screen seabird bycatch in Norwegian coastal fisheries in 2009. The purpose was ... -
Assessing sea floor functional biodiversity and vulnerability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The marine benthos has been largely studied through the use of response traits that characterise species vulnerability to disturbance. More limited has been the specific use of effect traits that represent other species ... -
Assessing the effect of mitigation efforts to improve vegetation recovery inpowerline construction sites across Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Land-use related to technical infrastructure puts great pressure on nature and landscapes globally. We used a screening approach to evaluate vegetation development in 295 construction sites related to upkeeping of the ... -
Assessing the effect of sample bias correction in species distribution models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)1. Open-source biodiversity databases contain a large number of species occurrence records but are often spatially biased; which affects the reliability of species distribution models based on these records. Sample bias ... -
Assessing the effectiveness of the Ramsar Convention in preserving wintering waterbirds in the Mediterranean
(Journal article, 2020)lthough biological conservation is based on international agreements, its effectiveness depends on how countries implement such recommendations as effective conservation tools. The Ramsar Convention is the oldest international ... -
Assessing the effects of climate on host-parasite interactions: a comparative study of European birds and their parasites
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Background: Climate change potentially has important effects on distribution, abundance, transmission and virulence of parasites in wild populations of animals. Methodology/Principal Finding: Here we analyzed paired ... -
Assessing the resilient provision of ecosystem services by social-ecological systems: introduction and theory
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
Assessing the Use of Artificial Hibernacula by the Great Crested Newt (Triturus cristatus) and Smooth Newt (Lissotriton vulgaris) in Cold Climate in Southeast Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Construction of artificial overwintering habitats, hibernacula, or newt hotels, is an important mitigation measure for newt populations in urban and agricultural areas. We have monitored the use of four artificial hotels ... -
Assessing the usefulness of citizen science data for habitat suitability modelling: Opportunistic reporting versus sampling based on a systematic protocol
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Aim: To evaluate the potential of models based on opportunistic reporting (OR) compared to models based on data from a systematic protocol (SP) for modelling species distributions. We compared model performance for eight ... -
An assessment of relative habitat use as a metric for species’ habitat association and degree of specialization
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In order to understand species’ sensitivity to habitat change, we must correctly determine if a species is associated with a habitat or not, and if it is associated, its degree of specialization for that habitat. However, ... -
An assessment of silvopastoral systems condition and their capacity to generate ecosystem services in the Colombian Amazon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Livestock production in the Colombian Amazonia is typically dual-purpose (meat and milk) based on silvopastoral systems. We aimed to assess how the ecological condition of these systems correspond to the ecosystem services ... -
Assessment of the risk to Norwegian biodiversity and aquaculture from pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha). Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Alien Organisms and Trade in Endangered Species of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The Norwegian Environment Agency and the Norwegian Food Safety Authority asked the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment to assess the risk to Norwegian biodiversity, to the productivity of native salmonid ... -
Association of landscape and environmental variables with the recruitment of the freshwater pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera) in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Using data from 309 localities with freshwater pearl mussel, Margaritifera margaritifera, in Norway, we analyzed the effect of several landscape and environmental variables on this species’ recruitment. Median summer air ... -
At which spatial and temporal scales can fungi indicate habitat connectivity?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Isolation of habitats in space and time affects species globally and in a multitude of ecosystems. It is however often difficult to assess the level of isolation from the point of view of the focal species. Indicator species ... -
Atlantic Puffin Fratercula arctica fishing in a freshwater lake to feed its chick
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)We present details for the observation of an adult Atlantic Puffin Fratercula arctica collecting food in Lake Linnévatnet (78°02’N 13°48’E), the second largest freshwater lake in the Svalbard archipelago, on 11 August 2020. ... -
Atlantic salmon in a rapidly changing environment—Facing the challenges of reduced marine survival and climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. Atlantic salmon populations have declined in recent decades. Many of the threats to the species during its freshwater and coastal residency periods are known, and management approaches are available to mitigate them. ... -
Atmospheric deposition and precipitation are important predictors of inorganic nitrogen export to streams from forest and grassland watersheds: a large-scale data synthesis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Previous studies have evaluated how changes in atmospheric nitrogen (N) inputs and climate affect stream N concentrations and fluxes, but none have synthesized data from sites around the globe. We identified variables ...
