    • Beregning av produksjon og tap i reindriften 

      Tveraa, Torkild; Ballesteros, Manuel; Bårdsen, Bård-Jørgen; Fauchald, Per; Lagergren, Madeleine; Langeland, Knut; Pedersen, Elisabeth; Stien, Audun (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2013-05)
      En økning i rovdyrbestandene i reinbeiteområdene regnes av næringen som den viktigste enkeltfaktoren som forårsaker lav kalvetilgang, store tap av dyr og derigjennom lav produksjon i tamreinflokkene i Norge. Endringer i reintall og klimatiske forhold er imidlertid også viktige faktorer som påvirker reproduksjon og overlevelse hos rein. Gitt at predasjon har stor innvirkning på reinens demografi ...

    • Impacts of a warming climate on concentrations of organochlorines in a fasting high arctic marine bird: Direct vs. indirect effects? 

      Bustnes, Jan Ove; Bårdsen, Bård-Jørgen; Moe, Børge; Herzke, Dorte; Ballesteros, Manuel; Fenstad, Anette; Borgå, Katrine; Krogseth, Ingjerd Sunde; Eulaers, Igor; Skogeng, Lovise Pedersen; Gabrielsen, Geir Wing; Hanssen, Sveinn Are (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-30)
      The present study examined how climate changes may impact the concentrations of lipophilic organochlorines (OCs) in the blood of fasting High Arctic common eiders (Somateria mollissima) during incubation. Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), 1-dichloro-2,2-bis (p-chlorophenyl) ethylene (p,p′-DDE), hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and four chlordane compounds (oxychlordane, trans-chlordane and trans- and ...

    • Inter-population synchrony in adult survival and effects of climate and extreme weather in non-breeding areas of Atlantic puffins 

      Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Layton-Matthews, Kate; Erikstad, K.E.; Hodges, Kevin I.; Ballesteros, Manuel; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Barrett, R.T.; Benjaminsen, Sigurd; Bogdanova, M.; Christensen-Dalsgaard, Signe; Daunt, Francis; Dehnhard, Nina; Harris, Michael P.; Langset, Magdalene; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Newell, Mark; Bråthen, Vegard Sandøy; Støyle-Bringsvor, I.; Systad, Geir Helge Rødli; Wanless, Sarah (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-14)
      Seabirds are undergoing drastic declines globally and spend the non-breeding season at sea, making it challenging to study the drivers of their survival. Harsh weather and changes in climate conditions can have large impacts on seabird population dynamics through increased mortality. The intensity and persistence of extreme events are forecasted to increase with global warming. As shared conditions ...

    • Mapping seabird vulnerability to offshore wind farms in Norwegian waters 

      Fauchald, Per; Ollus, Victoria Marja Sofia; Ballesteros, Manuel; Breistøl, Arild; Christensen-Dalsgaard, Signe; Molværsmyr, Sindre; Tarroux, Arnaud; Systad, Geir Helge Rødli; Moe, Børge (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-03-13)
      Introduction: Offshore wind energy development (OWED) has been identified as a major contributor to the aspired growth in Norwegian renewable energy production. Spatially explicit vulnerability assessments are necessary to select sites that minimize the harm to biodiversity, including seabird populations. Distributional data of seabirds in remote areas are scarce, and to identify vulnerable areas, ...

    • Twilight foraging enables European shags to survive the winter across their latitudinal range 

      Moe, Børge; Daunt, Francis; Bråthen, Vegard Sandøy; Barrett, Robert; Ballesteros, Manuel; Bjørnstad, Oskar; Bogdanova, Maria I.; Dehnhard, Nina; Erikstad, Kjell E.; Follestad, Arne; Gíslason, Sindri; Hallgrimsson, Gunnar Thor; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Newell, Mark; Petersen, Aevar; Phillips, Richard A.; Ragnarsdóttir, Sunna Björk; Reiertsen, Tone Kristin; Åström, Jens; Wanless, Sarah; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-14)
      Species breeding at high latitudes face a significant challenge of surviving the winter. Such conditions are particularly severe for diurnal marine endotherms such as seabirds. A critical question is therefore what behavioural strategies such species adopt to maximise survival probability. We tested 3 hypotheses: (1) they migrate to lower latitudes to exploit longer day length (‘sun-chasing’), (2) ...
