Causes and consequences of intersexual life history variation in a harvested herbivore population
Markussen, Stine Svalheim (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2018:246, Doctoral thesis, 2018)Et individ sin livshistorie er de stadiene knytt til reproduksjon og overlevelse som individet gjennomgår i løpet av livet. Variasjon i livshistorietrekk mellom individ er både et resultat av, og grunnlaget for evolusjonære ... -
Decomposing demographic contributions to the effective population size with moose as a case study
Lee, Aline Magdalena; Myhre, Ane Marlene; Markussen, Stine Svalheim; Engen, Steinar; Solberg, Erling Johan; Haanes, Hallvard; Røed, Knut; Herfindal, Ivar; Heim, Morten; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Levels of random genetic drift are influenced by demographic factors, such as mating system, sex ratio and age structure. The effective population size (N e) is a useful measure for quantifying genetic drift. Evaluating ... -
Determinants of age at first reproduction and lifetime breeding success revealed by full paternity assignment in a male ungulate
Markussen, Stine Svalheim; Herfindal, Ivar; Loison, Anne; Solberg, Erling Johan; Haanes, Hallvard; Røed, Knut; Heim, Morten; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Age at first reproduction is an important determinant of individual variation in reproductive success in ungulates, but few studies have examined its relationship with later fitness‐related traits in males. We used a ... -
Effects of inbreeding on fitness-related traits in a small isolated moose population
Haanes, Hallvard; Markussen, Stine Svalheim; Herfindal, Ivar; Røed, Knut H.; Solberg, Erling Johan; Heim, Morten; Midthjell, Liv; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Inbreeding can affect fitness-related traits at different life history stages and may interact with environmental variation to induce even larger effects. We used genetic parentage assignment based on 22 microsatellite ... -
Opposing fitness consequences of habitat use in a harvested moose population
Ofstad, Endre Grüner; Markussen, Stine Svalheim; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Solberg, Erling Johan; Heim, Morten; Haanes, Hallvard; Røed, Knut; Herfindal, Ivar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. Landscape changes are happening at an unprecedented pace, and together with high levels of wildlife harvesting humans have a large effect on wildlife populations. A thorough knowledge of their combined influence on ... -
Variation in recruitment failure of moose (Alces alces) - any effects of population condition and climate?
Markussen, Stine Svalheim (Master thesis, 2011)Summary1. Recruitment failure may represent an important demographic response to changes in the environment or in population size. In this study, I examined whether there was a positive relationship between recruitment ...
