Diabetic cats have decreased gut microbial diversity and a lack of butyrate producing bacteria
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Obesity and inactivity are major risk factors of feline diabetes mellitus (FDM) and human type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In recent years, changes in the gut microbiota have been suggested as a contributing factor to ... -
Environmental DNA filtration techniques affect recovered biodiversity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Freshwater metazoan biodiversity assessment using environmental DNA (eDNA) captured on filters offers new opportunities for water quality management. Filtering of water in the field is a logistical advantage compared to ... -
From greening to browning: Catchment vegetation development and reduced S-deposition promote organic carbon load on decadal time scales in Nordic lakes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Increased concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), often labelled “browning”, is a current trend in northern, particularly boreal, freshwaters. The browning has been attributed to the recent reduction in sulphate ... -
High genomic diversity in the endangered East Greenland Svalbard Barents Sea stock of bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The East Greenland-Svalbard-Barents Sea (EGSB) bowhead whale stock (Balaena mysticetus) was hunted to near extinction and remains Endangered on the International Union of Conservation of Nature Red List. The intense, ... -
Macroalgal browsing on a heavily degraded, urbanized equatorial reef system
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)The removal of macroalgal biomass is critical to the health of coral reef ecosystems. Previous studies on relatively intact reefs with diverse and abundant fish communities have quantified rapid removal of macroalgae by ... -
Marine habitat use and feeding ecology of introduced anadromous brown trout at the colonization front of the sub-Antarctic Kerguelen archipelago
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)In 1954, brown trout were introduced to the Kerguelen archipelago (49°S, 70°E), a pristine, sub-Antarctic environment previously devoid of native freshwater fishes. Trout began spreading rapidly via coastal waters to ... -
Molecular mechanisms underlying nuchal hump formation in dolphin cichlid, Cyrtocara moorii
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)East African cichlid fishes represent a model to tackle adaptive changes and their connection to rapid speciation and ecological distinction. In comparison to bony craniofacial tissues, adaptive morphogenesis of soft tissues ... -
Population consequences of climate change through effects on functional traits of lentic brown trout in the sub-Arctic
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Climate-induced plasticity in functional traits has received recent attention due to the immense importance phenotypic variation plays in population level responses. Here, we explore the efect of diferent climate-change ... -
Redefining the oceanic distribution of Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Determining the mechanisms driving range-wide reductions in Atlantic salmon marine survival is hindered by an insufcient understanding of their oceanic ecology and distribution. We attached 204 pop-up satellite archival ... -
Urban aliens and threatened near-naturals: Land-cover affects the species richness of alien- and threatened species in an urban-rural setting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Urbanisation has strong effects on biodiversity patterns, but impacts vary among species groups and across spatial scales. From a local biodiversity management perspective, a more general understanding of species richness ...
