    • Seasonal- and phase-dependent effects on vole population dynamics 

      Johnsen, Kaja (Doctoral thesis, 2018)
      Populasjonssykluser hos smågnagere er en viktig komponent i det boreale barskogsøkosystemet på de nordlige breddegrader. Mange hypoteser har blitt beskrevet for å forsøke å forklare disse sykliske svingningene, men predasjon, ...

      Thiel, Alexandra; Giroud, Sylvain; Hertel, Anne Gabriela; Friebe, Andrea; Devineau, Olivier; Fuchs, Boris; Blanc, Stephane; Støen, Ole-Gunnar; Laske, Timothy G.; Arnemo, Jon Martin; Evans, Alina (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Biological rhythms, such as rhythms in activity and body temperature, are usually highly synchronized and entrained by environmental conditions, such as photoperiod. However, how the expression of these rhythms changes ...
    • Small rodent cycles influence interactions among predators in a boreal forest ecosystem 

      Cano Martinez, Rocio; Sanchez, David Carricondo; Devineau, Olivier; Odden, Morten (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Cyclic fuctuations of prey have profound efects on the functioning of ecosystems, for example, by changing the dynamics, behavior, and intraguild interactions of predators. The aim of this study was to assess the efect of ...
