• Agricultural grasslands buffer density effects in red deer populations 

      Mysterud, Atle; Langvatn, Rolf; Meisingset, Erling L.; Rivrud, Inger Maren (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-29)
      Population densities of several cervid species have increased in recent decades in North America and Europe, and cervids frequently eat and damage agricultural crops. Competition and depletion of natural food resources are ...
    • Effect of legal regulation of supplemental feeding on space use of red deer in an area with chronic wasting disease 

      Mysterud, Atle; Rivrud, Inger Maren; Brekkum, Øystein; Meisingset, Erling L. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-12)
      Supplemental feeding of cervids during winter is a widespread management practice, but feeding may increase the risk of disease transmission. Therefore, legal regulations to limit supplemental feeding are often implemented ...
    • Estimating and managing broad risk of chronic wasting disease spillover among cervid species 

      Mysterud, Atle; Solberg, Erling Johan; Meisingset, Erling L.; Panzacchi, Manuela; Rauset, Geir Rune; Strand, Olav; Van Moorter, Bram; Rolandsen, Christer Moe; Rivrud, Inger Maren (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023-09-10)
      The management of infectious wildlife diseases often involves tackling pathogens that infect multiple host species. Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease that can infect most cervid species. CWD was detected in ...
    • Future suitability of habitat in a migratory ungulate under climate change 

      Rivrud, Inger Maren; Meisingset, Erling L.; Loe, Leif Egil; Mysterud, Atle (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03-20)
      With climate change, the effect of global warming on snow cover is expected to cause range expansion and enhance habitat suitability for species at their northern distribution limits. However, how this depends on landscape ...
    • Sex-specific differences in spring and autumn migration in a northern large herbivore 

      Debeffe, Lucie Isabelle; Rivrud, Inger Maren; Meisingset, Erling L.; Mysterud, Atle (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-16)
      Ongoing global warming is now affecting migratory cycles in a large variety of taxa in seasonally variable environments. Disruption of migratory systems can cause population decline and affect ecosystem function across the ...
    • Spatial clustering by red deer and its relevance for management of chronic wasting disease 

      Mysterud, Atle; Skjelbostad, Isa Nergård; Rivrud, Inger Maren; Brekkum, Øystein; Meisingset, Erling L. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-04-28)
      Herbivores like cervids usually graze on widely scattered forage, but anthropogenic food sources may cause spatial revisitation and aggregation, posing a risk for transmission of infectious diseases. In 2016, chronic wasting ...
