(Doctoral thesis / Doktoravhandling, 2013)Many African wildlife species are at risk of extinction as a result of habitat loss and fragmentation associated with human influence. Among these is the endangered antelope, mountain nyala (Tragelaphus buxtoni), endemic ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Among vertebrates, amphibians currently have the highest proportion of threatened species worldwide, mainly through loss of habitat, leading to increased population isolation. Smaller amphibian populations may lose more ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2013)Partial migration is common among northern ungulates, typically involving an altitudinal movement for seasonally migratory individuals. The main driving force behind migration is the benefit of an extended period of access ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)Recent studies suggest that previous estimates of mesopelagic biomasses are severely biased, with the new, higher estimates underlining the need to unveil behaviourally mediated coupling between shallow and deep ocean ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2014)Over the last decades the phylogeography and genetic structure of a multitude of species inhabiting Europe and North America have been described. The flora and fauna of the vast landmasses of north-eastern Eurasia are still ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)Workflows capable of determining glycopeptides in large-scale are missing in the field of glycoproteomics. We present an approach for automated annotation of intact glycopeptide mass spectra. The steps in adopting the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Abyssal plains are among the most biodiverse yet least explored marine ecosystems on our planet, and they are increasingly threatened by human impacts, including future deep seafloor mining. Recovery of abyssal populations ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)1. Hunting and culling are frequently used to combat infectious wildlife diseases. The aim is to markedly lower population density in order to limit disease transmission or to eradicate the host. Massive host culling can ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2016)In the threespine stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus model system, phenotypes are often classified into three morphs according to lateral plate number. Morph identity has been shown to be largely genetically determined, ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)1. Distinguishing correlative and causal connections among time series is an important challenge in evolutionary biology, ecology, macroevolution and palaeobiology. 2. Here, we present layeranalyzer, an r package that ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)Enterocin K1 (EntK1), enterocin EJ97 (EntEJ97), and LsbB are three sequence related leaderless bacteriocins. Yet LsbB kills only lactococci while EntK1 and EntEJ97 target wider spectra with EntK1 being particularly active ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2017)The aims of this paper are three-fold: 1. To analyse the development and stability in vegetative traits such as leaf shape, growth and pigmentation patterns in three different morphotypes (defined by leaf shape and ...

Learning and loving of nature in the Anthropocene. How to broaden science with curiosity and passion (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)What does “belonging to nature” mean today and how can children and young people be inspired to experience this? What basic dilemmas and challenges arise between the requirement for critical thinking on the one side, and ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)The supplementary feeding of cervids is a widespread practice across the northern hemisphere. There are few studies, however, regarding the extent of feeding in space and time. There are adverse effects of supplementary ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2015)Background: L. tarentolae, the lizard-infecting species of Old World geckos, has been classified as non-pathogenic to man. While it has been demonstrated that L. tarentolae is capable of infecting human phagocytic cells ...
