• The challenges and opportunities of coexisting with wild ungulates in the human-dominated landscapes of Europe's Anthropocene 

      Linnell, John Durrus; Cretois, Benjamin; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Solberg, Erling Johan; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Kaczensky, Petra; Van Moorter, Bram; Panzacchi, Manuela; Rauset, Geir Rune; Kaltenborn, Bjørn Petter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The cumulative impact of human activities has driven many species into severe declines across the globe. However, the recent focus on conservation optimism has begun to highlight case studies that go against this trend. ...
    • Coexistence of large mammals and humans is possible in Europe’s anthropogenic landscapes 

      Cretois, Benjamin; Linnell, John Durrus; Van Moorter, Bram; Kaczensky, Petra; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland; Parada, Jorge Sicacha; Rød, Jan Ketil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      A critical question in the conservation of large mammals in the Anthropocene is to know the extent to which they can tolerate human disturbance. Surprisingly, little quantitative data is available about large-scale effects ...
    • Ecological correlates of large carnivore depredation on sheep in Europe 

      Gervasi, Vincenzo; Linnell, John Durrus; Berce, Tomaz; Boitani, Luigi; Cerne, Rok; Ciucci, Paolo; Cretois, Benjamin; Derron-Hilfiker, Daniela; Duchamp, Christophe; Gastineau, Adrienne; Grente, Oksana; Huber, Djuro; Iliopoulos, Yorgos; Mertzanis, Yorgos; Männil, Peep; Norberg, Harri; Pagon, Nives; Pedrotti, Luca; Quenette, Pierre-Yves; Reljic, Slaven; Salvatori, Valeria; Talvi, Tõnu; von Arx, Manuela; Gimenez, Olivier (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Sharing space with large carnivores on a human-dominated continent like Europe results in multiple conflictful interactions with human interests, of which depredation on livestock is the most widespread. We conducted an ...
    • Hunters as citizen scientists: Contributions to biodiversity monitoring in Europe 

      Cretois, Benjamin; Linnell, John Durrus; Grainger, Matthew; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland; Rød, Jan Ketil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Monitoring biodiversity characteristics at large scales and with adequate resolution requires considerable effort and resources. Overall, there is clearly a huge scope for European hunters, a special and often overlooked ...
    • Identifying and correcting spatial bias in opportunistic citizen science data for wild ungulates in Norway 

      Cretois, Benjamin; Simmonds, Emily Grace; Linnell, John D. C.; van Moorter, Bram; Rolandsen, Christer M.; Solberg, Erling J.; Strand, Olav; Gundersen, Vegard; Roer, Ole; Rød, Jan Ketil (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Many publications make use of opportunistic data, such as citizen science observation data, to infer large-scale properties of species’ distributions. However, the few publications that use opportunistic citizen science ...
    • Transforming the use of citizen science data for biodiversity conservation at different scales 

      Cretois, Benjamin (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:311, Doctoral thesis, 2021)
      Obtaining large amount of data on species’ characteristics such as their distribution, abundance or movement patterns is not only important for scientists to better understand species’ ecology but it is also fundamentally ...
