Arctic greening from warming promotes declines in caribou populations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Themigratory tundra caribou herds in North America follow decadal population cycles, and browsing from abundant caribou could be expected to counteract the current climate-driven expansion of shrubs in the circumpolar ... -
Crowdsourced air temperatures contrast satellite measures of the urban heat island and its mechanisms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The ubiquitous nature of satellite data has led to an explosion of studies on the surface urban heat island (SUHI). Relatively few have simultaneously used air temperature measurements to compare SUHI with the canopy UHI ... -
Empirical observations of the spawning migrationof European eels: The long and dangerous roadto the Sargasso Sea
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The spawning migration of the European eel (Anguilla anguilla L.) to the Sargasso Sea is one of the greatest animal migrations. However, the duration and route of the migration remain uncertain. Using fishery data from ... -
Hybridization of Atlantic puffins in the Arctic coincides with 20th-century climate change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Arctic is experiencingthe fastest rates of globalwarming,leadingto shiftsin the distributionof its biotaandincreasingthe potentialfor hybridization. However, genomicevidenceof recenthybridization events in theArctic ... -
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 ... -
Introgression from farmed escapees affects the full life cycle of wild Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)After a half a century of salmon farming, we have yet to understand how the influx of genes from farmed escapees affects the full life history of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the wild. Using scale samples of over ... -
Optimization of dynamic soaring in a flap-gliding seabird affects its large-scale distribution at sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Dynamic soaring harvests energy from a spatiotemporal wind gradient, allowing albatrosses to glide over vast distances. However, its use is challenging to demonstrate empirically and has yet to be confirmed in other seabirds. ...
