• At which spatial and temporal scales can fungi indicate habitat connectivity? 

      Nordén, Jenni; Åström, Jens; Josefsson, Torbjörn; Blumentrath, Stefan; Ovaskainen, Otso; Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne; Nordén, Björn (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 ...
    • Climate influence on plant–pollinator interactions in the keystone species Vaccinium myrtillus 

      Olsen, Siri Lie; Evju, Marianne; Åström, Jens; Løkken, Jørn Olav; Dahle, Sondre; Andresen, Jonas; Eide, Nina Elisabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Climate change is altering the world's ecosystems through direct effects of climate warming and precipitation changes but also indirectly through changes in biotic interactions. For instance, climate-driven changes in plant ...
    • Designing a surveillance program for early detection of alien plants and insects in Norway 

      Sandercock, Brett; Davey, Marie Louise; Endrestøl, Anders; Blaalid, Rakel; Fossøy, Frode; Hegre, Hanne; Majaneva, Markus; Often, Anders; Åström, Jens; Jacobsen, Rannveig Margrete (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Naturalized species of alien plants and animals comprise < 3% of biodiversity recorded in Norway but have had major impacts on natural ecosystems through displacement of native species. Encroachment of alien species has ...
    • Do birds in flight respond to (ultra)violet lighting? 

      May, Roelof Frans; Åström, Jens; Hamre, Øyvind; Dahl, Espen Lie (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Concerns for bird collisions with wind turbines affect the deployment of onshore and offshore windpower plants. To avoid delays in consenting processes and to streamline the construction and operation phase, functional ...
    • Do birds respond to spiral markers on overhead wires of a high-voltage power line? Insights from a dedicated avian radar 

      Pavòn-Jordàn, Diego; Stokke, Bård Gunnar; Åström, Jens; Bevanger, Kjetil Modolv; Hamre, Øyvind; Torsæter, Ellen; May, Roelof Frans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Growing human population demands the expansion of the energy transmission grid. Power lines represent a major death hazard for many species, especially birds. Addressing such a human-wildlife conflict requires detailed ...
    • Emerging technologies revolutionise insect ecology and monitoring 

      van Klink, Roel; August, Tom; Bas, Yves; Bodesheim, Paul; Bonn, Aletta; Fossøy, Frode; Høye, Toke T.; Jongejans, Eelke; Menz, Myles H.M.; Miraldo, Andreia; Roslin, Tomas; Roy, Helen E.; Ruczyński, Ireneusz; Schigel, Dmitry; Schäffler, Livia; Sheard, Julie K.; Svenningsen, Cecilie; Tschan, Georg F.; Wäldchen, Jana; Zizka, Vera M.A.; Åström, Jens; Bowler, Diana Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Insects are the most diverse group of animals on Earth, but their small size and high diversity have always made them challenging to study. Recent technologi- cal advances have the potential to revolutionise insect ecology ...
    • Local resources, linear elements and mass-flowering crops determine bumblebee occurrences in moderately intensified farmlands 

      Kallioniemi, Eveliina; Åström, Jens; Rusch, Graciela; Dahle, Sondre; Åström, Sandra Charlotte Helene; Gjershaug, Jan Ove (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      There is consensus that land-use change is a main driver behind the recent declines of many pollinator populations in Europe. However, it is still not adequately understood how the local resource quality and landscape ...
    • Multi-colony tracking of two pelagic seabirds with contrasting flight capability illustrates how windscapes shape migratory movements at an ocean-basin scale 

      Amelineau, Francoise; Tarroux, Arnaud; Lacombe, Simon; Bråthen, Vegard Sandøy; Descamps, Sebastien; Ekker, Morten; Fauchald, Per; Johansen, Malin; Moe, Børge; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Bogdanova, Maria I.; Bringsvor, Ingar S.; Chastel, Olivier; Christensen-Dalsgaard, Signe; Daunt, Francis; Dehnhard, Nina; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Ezhov, Aleksey; Gavrilo, Maria; Hansen, Erpur S.; Harris, Mike P.; Helgason, Halfdan Helgi; Langset, Magdalene; Léandri-Breton, Don-Jean; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Merkel, Benjamin; Newell, Mark; Olsen, Bergur; Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Systad, Geir Helge Rødli; Thorarinsson, Thorkell L.; Åström, Jens; Strøm, Hallvard (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 ...
    • Paint it black: Efficacy of increased wind turbine rotor blade visibility to reduce avian fatalities 

      May, Roelof Frans; Nygård, Torgeir; Falkdalen, Ulla; Åström, Jens; Hamre, Øyvind; Stokke, Bård Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      As wind energy deployment increases and larger wind-power plants are considered, bird fatalities through collision with moving turbine rotor blades are expected to increase. However, few (cost-) effective deterrent or ...
