KLIMAFORSK-Stort program klima

Applying a new demographic framework to understand and project consequences of climate change in size- and age-structured populations

I dette prosjektet har vi studert hvordan størrelses-strukturerte populasjoner vil påvirkes av klimaendringer, basert på langsiktige data for gjedde (Windermere, England) og ørret (Mjøsa/Gudbrandsdalslågen). For mange arter er størrelse en viktig faktor som påvirker overlevelse, reproduksjon og ...

Fate of COPePod secondarY production in a chancing Arctic

A warmer climate with less extensive ice cover will lead to higher total primary production in the Arctic, which has the potential to increase the overall secondary production. Altered climate conditions will also affect timing of primary production, with consequences for the grazers of marine e...

Spatiotemporal changes in vegetation following range expansion in Svalbard reindeer

In 1978, Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarundus platyrhynchus) were re-introduced by humans to the Ny-Ålesund area following ca 100 yrs of absence due to excessive hunting. The population irrupted and gradually expanded its range to include other areas such as Sarsøyra and Kaffiøyra. This natural ...
