      A large array of species distribution model (SDM) approaches has been developed for explaining and predicting the occurrences of individual species or species assemblages. Given the wealth of existing models, it is unclear ...
    • Chasing the bird: 3D acoustic tracking of aerial flight displays with a minimal planar microphone array 

      Dutilleux, Guillaume Joseph Antonin; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Kålås, John Atle (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Tracking the flight patterns of birds and bats in three-dimensional space is central to key questions in evolutionary ecology but remains a difficult technical challenge. For example, complex aerial flight displays are ...

    • Heterogeneity among species and community dynamics – Norwegian bird communities as a case study 

      Solbu, Erik Blystad; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Kålås, John Atle; Engen, Steinar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      We have in this study analysed bird communities across Norway with a heterogeneous species abundance model, where dynamical parameters can vary among species. Similarity in community composition over time, used as a measure ...
    • Interspecific competition impacts the occupancy and range limits of two ptarmigan species along the elevation gradient in Norway 

      Mandeville, Caitlin Marie; Finstad, Anders Gravbrøt; Kålås, John Atle; Stokke, Bård Gunnar; Øien, Ingar Jostein; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Many mountain species are expected to respond to climate change through upslope shifts of their range limits, but competition may restrict or alter this response. Under traditional range-limit theory, it is expected that ...
    • Species distributions models may predict accurately future distributions but poorly how distributions change: A critical perspective on model validation 

      Piirainen, Sirke; Lehikoinen, Aleksi; Husby, Magne; Kålås, John Atle; Lindström, Åke; Ovaskainen, Otso Tapio (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Aim: Species distribution models (SDMs) are widely used to make predictions on how species distributions may change as a response to climatic change. To assess the reli-ability of those predictions, they need to be critically ...
