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 ... -

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 ... -
An effective method for the recapture of escaped farmed salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)ABSTRACT: The search for effective strategies to prevent and mitigate accidental releases of aquaculture fishes is on-going. To test a new recapture strategy and evaluate the individual dispersal behaviour of escaped farmed ... -
An expanded mammal mitogenome dataset from Southeast Asia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Southeast (SE) Asia is 1 of the most biodiverse regions in the world, and it holds approximately 20% of all mammal species. Despite this, the majority of SE Asia's genetic diversity is still poorly characterized. The growing ... -
An ‛Aukward’ tale: a genetic approach to discover the whereabouts of the last Great Auks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)One hundred and seventy-three years ago, the last two Great Auks, Pinguinus impennis, ever reliably seen were killed. Their internal organs can be found in the collections of the Natural History Museum of Denmark, but the ... -
The ancestry and geographical origins of St Helena's liberated Africans
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The island of St Helena played a crucial role in the suppression of the transatlantic slave trade. Strategically located in the middle of the South Atlantic, it served as a staging post for the Royal Navy and reception ... -
Ancestry testing of "Old Tom," a killer whale central to mutualistic interactions with human whalers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Cooperative hunting between humans and killer whales (Orcinus orca) targeting baleen whales was reported in Eden, New South Wales, Australia, for almost a century. By 1928, whaling operations had ceased, and local killer ... -
Ancient and historical DNA in conservation policy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Although genetic diversity has been recognized as a key component of biodiversity since the first Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) in 1993, it has rarely been included in conservation policies and regulations. Even ... -
Ancient and modern genomes unravel the evolutionary history of the rhinoceros family
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Only five species of the once-diverse Rhinocerotidae remain, making the reconstruction of their evolutionary history a challenge to biologists since Darwin. We sequenced genomes from five rhinoceros species (three extinct ... -
Ancient and modern stickleback genomes reveal the demographic constraints on adaptation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Adaptation is typically studied by comparing modern populations with contrasting environments. Individuals persisting in the ancestral habitat are typically used to represent the ancestral founding population; however, it ... -
Ancient DNA from a lost Negev Highlands desert grape reveals a Late Antiquity wine lineage
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Recent excavations of Late Antiquity settlements in the Negev Highlands of southern Israel uncovered a society that established commercial-scale viticulture in an arid environment [D. Fuks et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. ... -
Ancient DNA reveals the timing and persistence of organellar genetic bottlenecks over 3,000 years of sunflower domestication and improvement
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Here, we report a comprehensive paleogenomic study of archaeological and ethnographic sunflower remains that provides significant new insights into the process of domestication of this important crop. DNA from both ancient ... -
Ancient DNA suggests modern wolves trace their origin to a Late Pleistocene expansion from Beringia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Grey wolves (Canis lupus) are one of the few large terrestrial carnivores that have maintained a wide geographical distribution across the Northern Hemisphere throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene. Recent genetic studies ...
