Climate and density-dependence cause changes in adult sex ratio in a large Arctic herbivore
Peeters, Bart; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Stien, Audun; Irvine, Robert Justin; Aanes, Ronny; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Strand, Olav; Hansen, Brage Bremset (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Variation in adult sex ratio (ASR) affects population demography and dynamics of large mammals. The mechanisms behind this variation are largely unclear, but may be partly related to climatic drivers and density dependence ... -
Climate change influences reproduction in Arctic breeding geese through altered predator-prey interactions
Sætre, Mikael Andreas (Master thesis, 2022)Klimaendringer påvirker Arktiske herbivorer både direkte og indirekte gjennom endringer i tilgang på ressurser. I senere tid er det også funnet bevis som indikerer at effektene av klimaendringer også kan forekomme gjennom ... -
Contrasting genomic consequences of anthropogenic reintroduction and natural recolonization in high-arctic wild reindeer
Burnett, Hamish Andrew; Bieker, Vanessa Carina; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Peeters, Bart; Rosvold, Jørgen; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Dalén, Love; Loe, Leif Egil; Jensen, Henrik; Hansen, Brage Bremset; Martin, Michael David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anthropogenic reintroduction can supplement natural recolonization in reestablishing a species' distribution and abundance. However, both reintroductions and recolonizations can give rise to founder effects that reduce ... -
Effects of Climate and Animal Density on Adult Sex Ratio Variation in a Large Herbivore
Peeters, Bart (Master thesis, 2014)Adult sex ratio is often biased in natural populations, and its variation is known to influence different demographic components at the population level. The causes of variation in adult sex ratio remain, however, poorly ... -
Environmental effects on spatial population dynamics and synchrony – lessons from northern ecosystems
Herfindal, Ivar; Lee, Aline Magdalena; Marquez, Jonatan; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Peeters, Bart; Hansen, Brage Bremset; Henden, John-André; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Environmental variation in time and space generates complex patterns in the spatial structure of temporally covarying populations. Accounting for spatial population structure is important for sustainable management and ... -
Harvesting can stabilise population fluctuations and buffer the impacts of extreme climatic events
Peeters, Bart; Grøtan, Vidar; Gamelon, Marlène; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Lee, Aline Magdalena; Fryxell, John M.; Albon, Steve D.; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Engen, Steinar; Loe, Leif Egil; Hansen, Brage Bremset (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Harvesting can magnify the destabilising effects of environmental perturbations on population dynamics and, thereby, increase extinction risk. However, population-dynamic theory predicts that impacts of harvesting depend ... -
A paleogenomic investigation of overharvest implications in an endemic wild reindeer subspecies
Kellner, Fabian Laszlo; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Ellegaard, Martin Rene; Rosvold, Jørgen; Peeters, Bart; Burnett, Hamish Andrew; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Brealey, Jaelle C.; Dussex, Nicolas; Bieker, Vanessa Carina; Hansen, Brage Bremset; Martin, Michael David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Overharvest can severely reduce the abundance and distribution of a species and thereby impact its genetic diversity and threaten its future viability. Overharvest remains an ongoing issue for Arctic mammals, which due to ... -
Population dynamics under climate change ad harvesting: Results from the high Arctic Svalbard reindeer
Peeters, Bart (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:268, Doctoral thesis, 2019)To prevent populations or species extinctions due to anthropogenic global change, we need a better mechanistic understanding of the interplay between intrinsic (e.g. resource competition, demographic structure) and extrinsic ... -
Population responses to harvesting in fluctuating environments
Lee, Aline Magdalena; jarillo, j; Peeters, Bart; Hansen, Brage Bremset; cao-garcia, francisco; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Engen, Steinar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Achieving sustainable harvesting of natural populations depends on our ability to predict population responses to the combined effects of harvesting and environmental fluctuations while accounting for other internal and ... -
Sea ice loss increases genetic isolation in a high Arctic ungulate metapopulation
Peeters, Bart; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Raeymaekers, Joost A. M.; Fredricson Marquez, Jonatan; Røed, Knut; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Loe, Leif Egil; Hansen, Brage Bremset (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Sea ice loss may have dramatic consequences for population connectivity, extinction–colonization dynamics, and even the persistence of Arctic species subject to climate change. This is of particular concern in face of ... -
Spatial heterogeneity in climate change effects decouples the long‐term dynamics of wild reindeer populations in the high Arctic
Hansen, Brage Bremset; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Peeters, Bart; Le Moullec, Mathilde; Albon, Steve D.; Herfindal, Ivar; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Grøtan, Vidar; Aanes, Ronny (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The ‘Moran effect’ predicts that dynamics of populations of a species are synchronized over similar distances as their environmental drivers. Strong population synchrony reduces species viability, but spatial heterogeneity ... -
Spatiotemporal patterns of rain-on-snow and basal ice in high Arctic Svalbard: detection of a climate-cryosphere regime shift
Peeters, Bart; Pedersen, Åshild Ønvik; Loe, Leif Egil; Isaksen, Ketil; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Stien, Audun; Kohler, Jack; gallet, jean-charles; Aanes, Ronny; Hansen, Brage Bremset (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Arctic winters have become increasingly warmer and rainier. Where permafrost prevails, winter rain (or rain-on-snow; ROS) is known to occasionally cause extensive ice layers at the snow/ground interface, i.e. "basal ice" ...
