Bilberry seed production explains spatiotemporal synchronicity in bank vole population fluctuations in Norway
Selås, Vidar; Framstad, Erik; Rolstad, Jørund; Sonerud, Geir Andreas; Spidsø, Tor K.; Wegge, Per (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-01-12)Population fluctuations of small rodents are often synchronized over larger areas (>100 km) than what could be explained by dispersal, suggesting that the synchronizing factor is weather-related and possibly mediated through ... -
The lunar nodal phase cycle and winter atmospheric pressure as possible determinants of moth abundance: Analyses of a 30-year time series from South Norway
Selås, Vidar; Kobro, Sverre (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-10-27)According to the plant stress hypothesis, population peaks of herbivores such as moths are caused by plant stress factors that force plants to reallocate stored defensive proteins to transportable and easily digestive ... -
Moth species richness and diversity decline in a 30‑year time series in Norway, irrespective of species’ latitudinal range extent and habitat
Burner, Ryan C.; Selås, Vidar; Kobro, Sverre; Jacobsen, Rannveig Margrete; Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-10-25)Introduction Insects are reported to be in decline around the globe, but long-term datasets are rare. The causes of these trends are elusive, with changes in land use and climate among the top candidates. Yet if species ...
