Did you know that the snow bunting is the only songbird on Svalbard? It is actually the northernmost breeding passerine species. Check out the linktree in our bio for more information. @NTNU @NINAnature @UNISvalbard #svalbard #snowbunting #birds #conservation

Exploring sensitivities to hydropeaking in Atlantic salmon parr using individual‐based modelling

Hydropeaking (the release of water pulses at hydropower plants) results in temporary reductions in river channel water-covered area downstream, which may cause fish mortality through stranding. We...

Parasite Spillover from Domestic Sheep to Wild Reindeer—The Role of Salt Licks

Attraction sites are important for environmental pathogen transmission and spillover. Yet, their role in wildlife disease dynamics is often poorly substantiated. Herein, we study the role of salt...
