Endoparasite infection has both short- and long-term negative effects on reproductive success of female house sparrows, as revealed by faecal parasitic egg counts
Holand, Håkon; Jensen, Henrik; Tufto, Jarle; Pärn, Henrik; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Ringsby, Thor Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Parasites have the potential to severely reduce host reproductive success. However, the effects of endoparasites on reproductive success have not received the same amount of attention as the effects of parasites on host ... -
Lower survival probability of house sparrows severely infected by the gapeworm parasite
Holand, Håkon; Jensen, Henrik; Tufto, Jarle; Soliman, Mustafa M.; Pärn, Henrik; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Ringsby, Thor Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)The effect of parasites in natural populations has received increasing attention in recent years. Studies have shown that parasites may play an important part in population ecology due to their potential effects on host ... -
Parasite prevalence increases with temperature in an avian metapopulation in northern Norway
Holand, Håkon; Jensen, Henrik; Kvalnes, Thomas; Tufto, Jarle; Pärn, Henrik; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Ringsby, Thor Harald (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Climate and weather conditions may have substantial effects on the ecology of both parasites and hosts in natural populations. The strength and shape of the effects of weather on parasites and hosts are likely to change ... -
Spatial variation in senescence rates in a bird metapopulation
Holand, Håkon; Kvalnes, Thomas; Gamelon, Marlène; Tufto, Jarle; Jensen, Henrik; Pärn, Henrik; Ringsby, Thor Harald; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Journal article, 2016)Investigating factors which affect the decline in survival with age, i.e. actuarial senescence, is important in order to understand how demographic rates vary in wild populations. Although the evidence for the occurrence ...
