• Activity patterns of predator and prey : a simultaneous study of GPS-collared wolves and moose 

      Eriksen, Ane; Wabakken, Petter; Zimmermann, Barbara; Andreassen, Harry Peter; Arnemo, Jon Martin; Gundersen, Hege; Liberg, Olof; Linnell, John; Milner, Jos M.; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Sand, Håkan; Solberg, Erling J.; Storaas, Torstein (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      We studied the simultaneous activity patterns of a breeding wolf, Canis lupus, pair and five adult moose, Alces alces, cows from April to November 2004 in a wolf territory in southeastern Norway. All study animals were GPS ...
    • Balancing hunting regulations and hunter satisfaction: An integrated biosocioeconomic model to aid in sustainable management 

      Wam, Hilde Karine; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Hjeljord, Olav (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Hunting of game animals needs to be regulated, either through the number of permits or the bag size allowed per hunter. Such regulations may, however, jeopardize hunter satisfaction, on which game managers depend. Consequently, ...
    • Exploitative Competition between Mountain Hare and Moose—Qualitative Effects on Hare Winter Forage? 

      Pedersen, Simen; Pedersen, Hans Christian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Mountain hares (Lepus timidus) in Scandinavia are classified as Near Threatened in the Norwegian and Swedish Redlists. This is due to a possible population decline witnessed during the last decades in Scandinavia. Competition ...
    • Grouse hunting regulations and hunter typologies in Norway 

      Wam, Hilde K.; Andersen, Oddgeir; Pedersen, Hans Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Sustainable game management relies on satisfied hunters. Satisfaction determinants are seldom uniform across all hunters and may therefore be difficult to accommodate. Latent class analysis (LCA) is a probabilistic model-based ...
    • Large-scale climate variability and rodent abundance modulates recruitment rates in Willow Ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) 

      Kvasnes, Mikkel Andreas Jørnsøn; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Storaas, Torstein; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)
      Recruitment of juveniles is important for the size of the next year’s breeding population in many bird species. Climate variability and predation may affect recruitment rates, and when these factors are spatially correlated, ...
    • Nest-predator prevalence along a mountain birch–alpine tundra ecotone 

      Pedersen, Åshild Ø.; Asmyhr, Lasse; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Eide, Nina E. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Context. Nest predation is a major factor influencing life history and population dynamics of ground-nesting birds. The transitions between the northern boreal mountain birch forests and the low-alpine tundra are important ...
    • Shoot, shovel and shut up: cryptic poaching slows restoration of a large carnivore in Europe 

      Liberg, Olof; Chapron, Guillaume; Wabakken, Petter; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Hobbs, N. Thompson; Sand, Håkan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Poaching is a widespread and well-appreciated problem for the conservation of many threatened species. Because poaching is illegal, there is strong incentive for poachers to conceal their activities, and consequently, ...
    • Ulven som rovdyr på klauvvilt i Skandinavia 

      Zimmermann, Barbara; Sand, Håkan; Wabakken, Petter; Wikenros, Camilla; Eriksen, Ane; Strømseth, Tomas H.; Holen, Frode Gjerløv; Maartmann, Erling; Ahlqvist, Per; Arnemo, Jon Martin; Milleret, Cyril; Liberg, Olof; Pedersen, Hans Christian (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2015)
    • Vegetation type and demography of low density willow ptarmigan populations 

      Kvasnes, Mikkel Andreas Jørnsøn; Pedersen, Hans Christian; Storaas, Torstein; Nilsen, Erlend Birkeland (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The willow ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus) is an economically important and desired game species in Scandinavia. Its abundance varies considerably in time and space, but there has been a long-term population decline over recent ...
