      Kersten, Oliver; Star, Bastiaan; Leigh, Deborah M.; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Strøm, Hallvard; Danielsen, Jóhannis; Descamps, Sebastien; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Fitzsimmons, Michelle G.; Fort, Jérôme; Hansen, Erpur S.; Harris, Mike P.; Irestedt, Martin; Kleven, Oddmund; Mallory, Mark L.; Jakobsen, Kjetill S.; Boessenkool, Sanne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The factors underlying gene flow and genomic population structure in vagile seabirds are notoriously difficult to understand due to their complex ecology with diverse dispersal barriers and extensive periods at sea. Yet, ...
    • Consequences of cross-season demographic correlations for population viability 

      Layton-Matthews, Kate; Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Daunt, Francis; Wanless, Sarah; Barrett, Robert; Newell, Mark A; Harris, Mike P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Demographic correlations are pervasive in wildlife populations and can represent important secondary drivers of population growth. Empirical evidence suggests that correlations are in general positive for long-lived species, ...
    • Strong migratory connectivity across meta-populations of sympatric North Atlantic seabirds 

      Merkel, Benjamin; Descamps, Sebastien; Yoccoz, Nigel; Grémillet, David; Fauchald, Per; Danielsen, Jóhannis; Daunt, Francis; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Ezhov, Aleksey V.; Harris, Mike P.; Gavrilo, Maria; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Systad, Geir Helge Rødli; Thórarinsson, Thorkell Lindberg; Wanless, Sarah; Strøm, Hallvard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Identifying drivers of population trends in migratory species is difficult, as they can face many stressors while moving through different areas and environments during the annual cycle. To understand the potential of ...
