• Centennial relationships between ocean temperature and Atlantic puffin production reveal shifting decennial trends 

      Hansen, Erpur S.; Sandvik, Hanno; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Yoccoz, Nigel; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Bader, Jürgen; Descamps, Sebastien; Hodges, Kevin; Mesquita, Michel d. S.; Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Varpe, Øystein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The current warming of the oceans has been shown to have detrimental effects for a number of species. An understanding of the underlying mechanisms may be hampered by the non-linearity and non-stationarity of the relationships ...
    • Foraging tactics in dynamic sea-ice habitats affect individual state in a long-ranging seabird 

      Tarroux, Arnaud; Cherel, Yves; Fauchald, Per; Kato, Akiko; Love, Oliver P.; Ropert-Coudert, Yan; Spreen, Gunnar; Varpe, Øystein; Weimerskirch, Henri; Yoccoz, Nigel; Zahn, Sandrine; Descamps, Sebastien (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      1. Individual heterogeneity in diet and foraging behaviour is common in wild animal populations, and can be a strong determinant of how populations respond to environmental changes. Within populations, variation in foraging ...
    • Postglacial species arrival and diversity buildup of northern ecosystems took millennia 

      Alsos, Inger Greve; Rijal, Dilli Prasad; Ehrich, Dorothee; Karger, Dirk Nikolaus; Yoccoz, Nigel; Heintzman, Peter D.; Brown, Antony; Lammers, Youri; Pellissier, Loïc; Alm, Torbjørn; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Coissac, Eric; Merkel, Marie Føreid; Alberti, Adriana; Denoeud, France; Bakke, Jostein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      What drives ecosystem buildup, diversity, and stability? We assess species arrival and ecosystem changes across 16 millennia by combining regional-scale plant sedimentary ancient DNA from Fennoscandia with near-complete ...
    • Sedimentary ancient DNA shows terrestrial plant richness continuously increased over the Holocene in northern Fennoscandia 

      Rijal, Dilli Prasad; Heintzman, Peter D.; Lammers, Youri; Yoccoz, Nigel; Lorberau, Kelsey; Pitelkova, Iva; Goslar, Tomasz; Murguzur, Francisco Javier Ancin; Salonen, J. Sakari; Helmens, Karin F.; Bakke, Jostein; Edwards, Mary E.; Alm, Torbjørn; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Brown, Antony; Alsos, Inger Greve (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The effects of climate change on species richness are debated but can be informed by the past. Here, we generated a sedimentary ancient DNA dataset covering 10 lakes and applied novel methods for data harmonization. We ...
    • A standard protocol for describing the evaluation of ecological models 

      Planque, Benjamin; Aarflot, Johanna Myrseth; Buttay, Lucie; Carroll, JoLynn; Fransner, Sara Filippa Krusmynta; Hansen, Cecilie; Husson, Berengere; Langangen, Øystein Ole Gahr; Lindstrøm, Ulf Ove; Pedersen, Torstein; Primicerio, Raul; Sivel, Elliot Manuarii; Skogen, Morten D.; Strombom, Evelyn; Stige, Leif Christian; Varpe, Øystein; Yoccoz, Nigel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Numerical models of ecological systems are increasingly used to address complex environmental and resource management questions. One challenge for scientists, managers, and stakeholders is to appraise how well suited these ...
