Positioning aquatic animals with acoustic transmitters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Geolocating aquatic animals with acoustic tags has been ongoing for decades, relying on the detection of acoustic signals at multiple receivers with known positions to calculate a 2D or 3D position, and ultimately ... -
Hibernation and plasma lipids in free-ranging brown bears-implications for diabetes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Brown bears (Ursus arctos) prepare for winter by overeating and increasing adipose stores, before hibernating for up to six months without eating, drinking, and with minimal movement. In spring, the bears exit the den ... -
Shifting seasonality of annual growth through ontogeny for red deer at northern latitudes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Large mammals at northern latitudes show annual cycles of body mass gain insummer and body mass loss in winter. The amplitude and seasonal timing of these cycles may vary through ontogeny depending on trade-offs toward ... -
ECKOchain: A FAIR blockchain-based database for long-term ecological data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)1. Open data practices in ecology are increasingly accepted, yet primary long-term ecological data remain hard to find. Barriers preventing open long-term ecological data include social and economic constructs such as a ... -
Diverse values of nature for sustainability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Twenty-fve years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being, addressing the global biodiversity crisis still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values ... -
Novel large-scale mapping highlights poor state of sea trout populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)1. The state of sea trout in 1251 Norwegian watercourses was assessed based on a scoring system for human pressures, abundance data, and local knowledge. 2. Over 16,000 km of rivers and lakes were available to sea trout ... -
The evolving story of catadromy in the European eel (Anguilla anguilla)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anguillid eels were once considered to be the classic example of catadromy. However, alternative life cycles have been reported, including skipping the freshwater phase and habitat shifting between fresh, brackish, and ... -
Value asymmetries in Norwegian forest governance: The role of institutions and power dynamics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)We draw on institutional and ecological economics to understand the role of social preferences, institutional arrangements, and power dynamics in mobilizing or restraining ecosystem services and values in Norwegian forest ... -
Insurance value of biodiversity in the Anthropocene is the full resilience value
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Recently two distinctly different conceptualisations of insurance value of biodiversity/ ecosystems have been developed. The ecosystem framing addresses the full resilience value without singling out subjective risk ... -
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 ... -
Forest science between human and nonhuman agency
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)This paper explores the distribution of agency in forest science. Studies of forest science tend to view it primarily as seeking to control and exploit natural resources. But recent turns in social theory open for ... -
Urban resilience through green infrastructure: A framework for policy analysis applied to Madrid, Spain
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Urban resilience and how to assess it have become main policy objectives in the face of accelerated climate and other global environmental change. We develop a conceptual framework and an assessment tool to analyse how ... -
Metodeuttesting for skånsom DNA-innsamling fra amfibier
(NINA Rapport;2406, Research report, 2024)Taugbøl, A. 2024. Metodeuttesting for skånsom DNA-innsamling fra amfibier NINA Rapport 2406. Norsk institutt for naturforskning. Genetisk variasjon er nøkkelfaktoren til en sunn populasjon, men for å få kunnskap om genetisk ... -
National mapping and assessment of ecosystem services projects in Europe – Participants’ experiences, state of the art and lessons learned
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Backed by the Biodiversity Strategy to 2020 and 2030, numerous ‘Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystem Services’ (MAES) projects have been completed in recent years in the member states of the European Union, with substantial ... -
Responses of the hyper-diverse community of canopy-dwelling Hymenoptera to oak decline
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)1. Forest decline and dieback are growing phenomena worldwide, resulting in severe,large-scale degradation of the canopy. This can profoundly alter the provision oftrophic resources and microhabitats for canopy-dwelling ... -
Genetic diversity, gene flow, and landscape resistance in a pond-breeding amphibian in agricultural and natural forested landscapes in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Genetic diversity is a key part of biodiversity, threatened by human activities that lead to loss of gene flow and reduction of effective population sizes. Gene flow is a result of both landscape connectivity and ... -
Relic DNA confounds the results of DNA-based study on microeukaryotic succession in aquatic biofilms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized the DNA sequence-based study of microbial community and diversity on an unprecedented scale. Relic DNA is widespread in the natural aquatic environment; however, the extent to ... -
Climatic variation influences annual survival of an island-breeding tropical shorebird
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global biodiversity loss is a major environmental concern. The wildlife on islands are particularly vulnerable to threats posed by alien predators, habitat loss and overexploitation. Effective conservation management of ... -
Defining ecological buffer mechanisms should consider diverse approaches
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In their response letter, Gascoigne et al. propose a relevant approach to characterizing ecological buffer mechanisms, akin to the study of buffer mechanisms in chemistry [1]. Their chemistry-inspired viewpoint enables ... -
