From movement behaviour to space use in mountain ungulates

Factors determining where and how far an animal is going to move entail both intrinsic variables (such as, diet, age, and reproductive status) and external cues (e.g. climate, resource availability, predation risk), and their effect will be reflected at a ll spatial scales, from individual steps ...

Lost in the archive: Viking Age monument and artefact re-use and the re-interpretation of old finds at the Arch. museum Univ. of Stavanger

Recent studies at the Arkeologisk museum Universitetet i Stavanger (AmUiS) have shown that the datings of archaeological finds at the museum have sometimes been misinterpreted in earlier times. While the museum catalogue suggested only one time period for certain finds - such as grave mounds, fo...

Meaning Beyond Truth-Conditions: From Vagueness to Linguistic Interpretation

In formal semantics, the meaning of a sentence is its truth-conditions. But that is not uncontroversial. There is a vast recent literature on what could be called the underdeterminacy thesis, which basically says that meaning underdetermines truth-conditi ons. And there are individual areas of re...

Norwegian-Spanish cooperation to study human disturbance on brown bears. Applications for the conservation and management of bears in Europe

Understanding the effects of human activities on wildlife is challenging for large carnivores. During my PhD I studied effects of human activities on the behavior of brown bears, which showed fine-scale behavioral responses to human activities. Now I am l eading a project to compare bear behavior...
