      Non-breeding movement strategies of migratory birds may be expected to be flexibly adjusted to the distribution and quality of habitat, but few studies compare movement strategies among populations using distinct migration ...
    • Climate change and the increasing impact of polar bears on bird populations 

      Prop, Jouke; Aars, Jon; Bårdsen, Bård-Jørgen; Hanssen, Sveinn Are; Bech, Claus; Bourgeon, Sophie; Fouw, Jimmy de; Gabrielsen, Geir W.; Lang, Johannes; Noreen, Elin; Oudman, Thomas; Sittler, Benoit; Tombre, Ingunn; Wolters, Eva; Moe, Børge; Stempniewicz, Lech (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)
      The Arctic is becoming warmer at a high rate, and contractions in the extent of sea ice are currently changing the habitats of marine top-predators dependent on ice. Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) depend on sea ice for ...
    • Communication Interventions and Fear of Brown Bears: Considerations of Content and Format 

      Johansson, Maria; Hallgren, Lars; Flykt, Anders; Støen, Ole-Gunnar; Thelin, Linda; Frank, Jens (Journal article, 2019)
      Communication interventions are commonly proposed as a way to address people’s fear and negative attitudes to build tolerance in shared landscapes between humans and large carnivores. Therefore, managing authorities ...
    • Harvest regulations and implementation uncertainty in small game harvest management 

      Moa, Pål Fossland; Eriksen, Lasse Frost; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      A main challenge in harvest management is to set policies that maximize the probability that management goals are met. While the management cycle includes multiple sources of uncertainty, only some of these has received ...
    • Migration patterns of Upland Sandpipers in the western hemisphere 

      Hill, Jason M.; Sandercock, Brett; Renfrew, Rosalind B. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Integrated models of the ecology of migratory species require tracking of individual migratory organisms throughout the annual cycle. Here, we report the first information on the movement patterns of nine Upland Sandpipers ...
    • One Hundred Pressing Questions on the Future of Global Fish Migration Science, Conservation, and Policy

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Migration is a widespread but highly diverse component of many animal life histories. Fish migrate throughout the world’s oceans, within lakes and rivers, and between the two realms, transporting matter, energy, and other ...
