Merging and comparing three mitochondrial markers for phylogenetic studies of Eurasian reindeer (Rangifer tarandus)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Phylogenetic analyses provide information that can be useful in the conservation of genetic variation by identifying intraspecific genetic structure. Reconstruction of phylogenetic relationships requires the use of markers ... -
Meta-Analysis of 1,200 Transcriptomic Profiles Identifies a Prognostic Model for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)PURPOSE: With a dismal 8% median 5-year overall survival, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal malignancy. Only 10% to 20% of patients are eligible for surgery, and more than 50% of these patients ... -
Metabolic reprogramming involving glycolysis in the hibernating brown bear skeletal muscle
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background In mammals, the hibernating state is characterized by biochemical adjustments, which include metabolic rate depression and a shift in the primary fuel oxidized from carbohydrates to lipids. A number of studies ... -
Methods for live-trapping beaver (Castor spp.)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 1998)Effective live-trapping of beaver (Castor spp.) has been and will continue to be necessary for introductions, re-introductions, translocation for the preservation of populations, removal of nuisance beaver, and to obtain ... -
Methods of aquatic and terrestrial netting to capture Eurasian beavers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2001)Effective live-trapping of beavers (Castor spp.) has been and will continue to be necessary for introductions, re-introductions, translocation, or to obtain animals for breeding and zoological gardens. Here we describe a ... -
Microclimatic comparison of lichen heaths and shrubs: Shrubification generates atmospheric heating but subsurface cooling during the growing season
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Lichen heaths are declining in abundance in alpine and Arctic areas partly due to an increasing competition with shrubs. This shift in vegetation types might have important consequences for the microclimate and climate on ... -
Microcystis, Raphidiopsis raciborskii and Dolichospermum smithii, toxin producing and non-toxigenic cyanobacteria in Yezin Dam, Myanmar
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Yezin Dam is a man-made reservoir located close to Yezin village in Myanmar. Its water is used for irrigation, domestic purposes and as drinking water for many urban communities in the watershed area. In recent years, ... -
Mikronisert Solaritt (Ca-silikat) for bruk i vassdragskalking
(NIVA-rapport;, Research report, 2019)To typer av mikronisert solaritt (Ca2SiO4); Sol.2 og Sol.3, ble undersøkt for egnethet til bruk i vassdragskalking. Solarittene ble sammenliknet med de tradisjonelle kalkingsmidlene CaCO3 og NaOH i labforsøk for å studere ... -
MIS 3 sediment stratigraphy in southern Sweden sheds new light on the complex glacial history and dynamics across southern Scandinavia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Recent studies have revealed that areas with sediments pre‐dating the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) are more common in southern Scandinavia than previously thought. To describe and date these sediments, four deep core drillings ... -
Mitochondrial phylogeography of the Eurasian beaver Castor fiber L.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2005)Nucleotide variation in an approximately 490 bp fragment of the mitochondrial DNA control region (mtDNA CR) was used to describe the genetic variation and phylogeographical pattern in the Eurasian beaver ( Castor fiber ) ... -
Modeled storm surge changes in a warmer world: the Last Interglacial
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Last Interglacial (LIG; ca. 125 ka) is a period of interest for climate research as it is the most recent period of the Earth's history when the boreal climate was warmer than at present. Previous research, based on ... -
Modelling the vegetation response to the 8.2 ka BP cooling event in Europe and Northern Africa
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The 8.2 ka bp cooling event is assumed to be the most clearly marked abrupt climate event in the Holocene at northern mid‐ to high latitudes. In this study, we simulate the vegetation responses to the 8.2 ka bp climate ... -
Molecular characterisation of TP53 mutated squamous cell carcinomas of the lung to identify putative targets for therapy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Personalised cancer treatment depends on identification of therapeutically relevant biological subgroups of patients for assessing effect of treatment and to discover new therapeutic options. By analyses in heterogeneous ... -
More than agriculture: Analysing time-cumulative human impact on European land-cover of second half of the holocene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Assessment of past anthropogenic modifications of land-cover dynamics is key to understanding the human role in the Earth system. Recent advances in palaeoenvironmental sciences allow us to assess the long-term impacts of ... -
Movement and habitat selection of a large carnivore in response to human infrastructure differs by life stage
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Background: The movement extent of mammals is influenced by human-modified areas, which can affect population demographics. Understanding how human infrastructure influences movement at different life stages is important ... -
National Parks in Northern Sweden as Refuges for Illegal Killing of Large Carnivores
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Large protected areas are often considered to be as important as population size in reducing extinction risk for large carnivores. However, the effectiveness of protected areas for large carnivore survival has rarely been ... -
A nature-based solution to a landfill-leachate contamination of a confined aquifer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Remediation of groundwater from landfill contamination presents a serious challenge due to the complex mixture of contaminants discharged from landfills. Here, we show the significance of a nature-based solution to a ... -
