An accurate assignment test for extremely low-coverage whole-genome sequence data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Genomic assignment tests can provide important diagnostic biological characteristics, such as population of origin or ecotype. Yet, assignment tests often rely on moderate- to high-coverage sequence data that can be difficult ... -
Acoustic accelerometer transmitters and their growing relevance to aquatic science
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)There has recently been great interest in the use of accelerometers onboard electronic transmitters to characterise various aspects of the ecology of wild animals. We review use cases and outline how these tools can provide ... -
Active Whaling, Opportunistic Scavenging or Long-Distance Trading: Zooarchaeological, Palaeoproteomic, and Historical Analyses on Whale Exploitation and Bone Working in Anglo-Saxon Hamwic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)THE ANGLO-SAXON SITE OF HAMWIC (modern Southampton, Hampshire, UK) has been identified as a major bone-working centre. Besides antler and terrestrial mammal bone, cetacean bone has been recovered in high quantities. These ... -
Actuarial senescence in a long-lived orchid challenges our current understanding of ageing
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The dominant evolutionary theory of actuarial senescence—an increase in death rate with advancing age—is based on the concept of a germ cell line that is separated from the somatic cells early in life. However, such a ... -
Actuarial senescence progresses similarly across sites and species in four boreal orchids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)1. Whole-plant senescence, defined as a decrease in individual fitness as an organism grows older, has often been assumed to not occur in plants; however, it has now been detected in a range of plant taxa. Still, reported ... -
Adaptation to the High-Arctic island environment despite long-term reduced genetic variation in Svalbard reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Typically much smaller in number than their mainland counterparts, island populations are ideal systems to investigate genetic threats to small populations. The Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) is an ... -

Advancing Data Quality of Marine Archaeological Documentation Using Underwater Robotics: From Simulation Environments to Real-World Scenarios
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)This paper presents a novel method for the visual-based 3D mapping of underwater cultural heritage sites through marine robotic operations. The proposed methodology addresses the three main stages of an underwater robotic ... -
Advancing the use of molecular methods for routine freshwater macroinvertebrate biomonitoring – the need for calibration experiments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Over the last decade, steady advancements have been made in the use of DNA-based methods for detection of species in a wide range of ecosystems. This progress has culminated in molecular monitoring methods being employed ... -
Airborne laser scanning reveals increased growth and complexity of boreal forest canopies across a network of ungulate exclosures in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Large herbivores are often classed as ecosystem engineers, and when they become scarce or overabundant, this can alter ecosystem states and influence climate forcing potentials. This realization has spurred a call to ... -
Airborne laser scanning reveals uniform responses of forest structure to moose (Alces alces) across the boreal forest biome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. The moose Alces alces is the largest herbivore in the boreal forest biome, where it can have dramatic impacts on ecosystem structure and dynamics. Despite the importance of the boreal forest biome in global carbon ... -

Alien plants, animals, fungi and algae in Norway: an inventory of neobiota
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)We present the results of an inventory and status assessment of alien species in Norway. The inventory covered all known multicellular neobiota, 2496 in total, 1039 of which were classified as naturalised. The latter ... -
Alien species in Norway: results from quantitative ecological impact assessments
(Journal article, 2020)1. Due to globalisation, trade and transport, the spread of alien species is increasing dramatically. Some alien species become ecologically harmful by threatening native biota. This can lead to irreversible changes in ... -
Allmennpedagogiske undervisningsprinsipper for helhetlig danning. Musikk og følelser som case
(Chapter, 2024)Dette kapittelet løfter fram sider av Johann Heinrich Pestalozzis (1746–1827) klassiske allmennpedagogikk. Med musikk som vårt eksempel er Pestalozzis vektlegging av hånden, hjertet og hodet en forutsetning for helhetlig ... -

Amphibian recovery after a decrease in acidic precipitation
(Journal article, 2017)We here report the first sign of amphibian recovery after a strong decline due to acidic precipitation over many decades and peaking around 1980–90. In 2010, the pH level of ponds and small lakes in two heavily acidified ...
