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 ... -
Ice-dependent winter survival of juvenile Atlantic salmon

Sea duck predation in mussel farms: the best nets for excluding common eiders safely and efficiently
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Shellfish aquaculture is a growing food-producing sector. The blue mussel Mytilus edulis is the primary farmed shellfish and is also a main prey for various species of sea ducks. With their large density of high-quality ... -
Using natural marks to estimate free-ranging dog Canis familiaris abundance in a MARK-RESIGHT framework in suburban Mumbai, India
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Free-ranging dogs (Canis familiaris) are a major conservation issue in the tropics and adopt many ecological roles, alternatively functioning as predators, prey, or competitors of wildlife in diverse environments. Dogs are ... -
Whose Hydropower? From Conflictual Management into an Era of Reconciling Environmental Concerns; A Retake of Hydropower Governance towards Win-Win Solutions?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Hydropower has been core in the nation-building process of several countries. This includes Sweden in which it currently supplies around 50% of the electricity and particularly Norway where almost all electricity is generated ... -
Scavenging patterns of an inbred wolf population in a landscape with a pulse of human-provided carrion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Scavenging is an important part of food acquisition for many carnivore species that switch between scavenging and predation. In landscapes with anthropogenic impact, humans provide food that scavenging species can utilize. ... -
Large carnivore conservation and traditional pastoralism: A case study on bear–reindeer predation mitigation measures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)While wildlife and cultural preservation goals can be either complimentary orcounteractive, the goals of large carnivore conservation and traditional pastoralist lifestyles are often at odds. Livestock depredation can ... -
Evolution of complex symbiotic relationships in a morphologically derived family of lichen-forming fungi
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)We studied the evolutionary history of the Parmeliaceae (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota),one of the largest families of lichen-forming fungi with complex and variable morphologies,also including several lichenicolous fungi. ... -
The King of the Forest: Local Knowledge About European Brown Bears (Ursus arctos) and Implications for Their Conservation in Contemporary Western Macedonia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011)From a conservation point of view, Macedonia’s brown bear (Ursus arctos) population appears to be a key link in the distribution of one of Europe’s largest brown bear populations, the Dinaric-Pindos population. The lack ... -
Variation in albedo and other vegetation characteristics in non-forested northern ecosystems: the role of lichens and mosses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Vegetation has a profound impact on climate through complex interactions and feedback loops, where especially regulation of albedo, the ratio of reflected to incoming solar radiation, is important at high latitudes. How ... -
Female sociality and kin discrimination in brood parasitism: Unrelated females fight over egg laying
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)In conspecific brood parasitism, some females (“parasites”) lay eggs in nests of other females of the same species (“hosts”). This reproductive tactic is particularly common in waterfowl, in which studies suggest that ... -
Maternal Androgens Increase Sibling Aggression, Dominance, and Competitive Ability in the Siblicidal Black-Legged Kittiwake (Rissa tridactyla)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)Animals and plants routinely produce more offspring than they can afford to rear. Mothers can favour certain young by conferring on them competitive advantages such as a leading position in the birth sequence, more resources ... -
