The database of the PREDICTS (Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems) project
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-12-10)
The PREDICTS project—Projecting Responses of Ecological Diversity In Changing Terrestrial Systems (www.predicts.org.uk)—has collated from published studies a large, reasonably representative database of comparable samples of biodiversity from multiple sites that differ in the nature or intensity of human impacts relating to land use. We have used this evidence base to develop global and regional ...
Seasonal difference in temporal transferability of an ecological model: near-term predictions of lemming outbreak abundances
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-15)
Ecological models have been criticized for a lack of validation of their temporal transferability. Here we
answer this call by investigating the temporal transferability of a dynamic state-space model developed
to estimate season-dependent biotic and climatic predictors of spatial variability in outbreak abundance
of the Norwegian lemming. Modelled summer and winter dynamics parametrized by spatial ...

Changed Arctic-alpine food web interactions under rapid climate warming: implication for ptarmigan research
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-06-05)
Ptarmigan are herbivorous birds that are year-round residents of alpine and arctic ecosystems — presently subjected to the most rapid climate warming on earth. Yet, compared to other bird taxa there has been little climate impact research on ptarmigan. Ptarmigan population dynamics, in particular in the sub/low-arctic, appears to be strongly influenced by complex interactions with a suite of ...

Ecosystem drivers of an Arctic fox population at the western fringe of the Eurasian Arctic
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08-16)
The distribution of traditional breeding dens on the Varanger Peninsula (70–71°N) in northernmost
Fennoscandia indicates that this area once harboured a large Arctic fox population.
Early 20th century naturalists regarded the coastal tundra of the Fennoscandian Low Arctic to
be a stronghold for the species. At the start of our research in 2004, however, the local Arctic
fox population was ...
Declining willow ptarmigan populations : the role of habitat structure and community dynamics
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2011)
The recent range contractions and population declines of many grouse species worldwide have been attributed to loss and fragmentation of their habitats, although the empirical evidence for the actual drivers is often weak. In case of the willow ptarmigan Lagopus lagopus in Fennoscandia, ungulate overbrowsing of willows has been hypothesized to exert such negative habitat-related impacts. Moreover, ...
