    • Brain-infecting parasites leave lasting effects on behaviour even in resistant hosts 

      Vindas, Marco; Midttun, Helene Louise Eghave; Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Fontaine, Romain; Weltzien, Finn-Arne; Øverli, Øyvind; Johansen, Ida Beitnes (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)

    • A brain‐infecting parasite impacts host metabolism both during exposure and after infection is established 

      Nadler, Lauren Elizabeth; Bengtson, Erik; Eliason, Erika J.; Helland-Riise, Siri Helene; Johansen, Ida Beitnes; Turner, Andrew; Øverli, Øyvind; Hechinger, Ryan F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      1. Metabolic costs associated with parasites should not be limited to established infections. Even during initial exposure to questing and attacking parasites, hosts can enact behavioural and physiological responses that ...

    • Contrasting drivers of community‐level trait variation for vascular plants, lichens and bryophytes across an elevational gradient 

      Roos, Ruben Erik; van Zuijlen, Kristel; Birkemoe, Tone; Klanderud, Kari; Lang, Simone; Bokhorst, Stef; Wardle, David A.; Asplund, Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Across environmental gradients, community‐level functional traits of plants can change due to species turnover, intraspecific variation and their covariation. Studies on vascular plants suggest that species turnover is the ...

    • Exclusion of invertebrates influences saprotrophic fungal community and wood decay rate in an experimental field study 

      Jacobsen, Rannveig Margrete; Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne; Kauserud, Håvard; Mundra, Sunil; Birkemoe, Tone (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      1. Decomposer communities perform an essential ecosystem function by recycling nutrients. However, the effect of higher trophic levels on microbial decomposer communities and rate of decomposition is poorly understood. We ...

    • Fat storage influences fasting endurance more than body size in an ungulate 

      Trondrud, Liv Monica; Pigeon, Gabriel; Król, Elżbieta; Albon, Steve; Evans, Alina; Arnold, Walter; Hambly, Catherine; Irvine, R. Justin; Ropstad, Erik; Stien, Audun; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Speakman, John R.; Loe, Leif Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The fasting endurance hypothesis (FEH) predicts strong selection for large body size in mammals living in environments where food supply is interrupted over prolonged periods of time. The Arctic is a highly seasonal and ...

    • Little impact of over-winter parasitism on a free-ranging ungulate in the high Arctic 

      Carlsson, Anja M.; Albon, Steve D.; Coulson, Stephen James; Ropstad, Erik; Stien, Audun; Wilson, Kenneth; Loe, Leif Egil; Veiberg, Vebjørn; Irvine, Robert Justin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      1. Macroparasites have a central place in wildlife ecology because they have the potential to regulate host populations through effects on reproduction and/or survival. However, there remains a paucity of studies that have ...

    • Shifts in risk sensitivity and resource availability alter fat stores for a large mammal following extreme winter conditions 

      LaSharr, Tayler N.; Jakopak, Rhiannon P.; Bårdsen, Bård-Jørgen; Robinson, Timothy J.; Dwinnell, Samantha Paige; Randall, Jill; Kaiser, Rusty C.; Thonhoff, Mark; Scurlock, Brandon; Fieseler, Troy; Hymas, Neil; Monteith, Kevin L. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      For species that inhabit environments where resource availability may be unpredictable, balance of resource allocation to life-history traits can have heightened consequences for survival, reproduction, and ultimately, ...
