Automatic camera traps in monitoring small mammals : the effect of predation risk on activity and foraging in winter and spring
Kervola, Anna (2019)Ilmastonmuutoksen myötä on tärkeää seurata vaihtuvissa ympäristöolosuhteissa eläviä eläinpopulaatioita- ja yhdyskuntia. Modernit riistakamerat mahdollistavat eläinten tarkkailun luonnollisessa ympäristössä. Tämä tutkimus ... -
Parasite transmission in aquatic ecosystems under temperature change : effects of host activity and elimination of parasite larvae by filter-feeders
Gopko, Misha; Mironova, Ekaterina; Pasternak, Anna; Mikheev, Victor; Taskinen, Jouni (Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)A moderate raise in temperature was suggested to enhance the impact of parasites on aquatic ecosystems. Under higher temperatures, poikilothermic animals (e.g. fish) increase their activity, which can result in a more ... -
Variation in defence and its fitness consequences in aposematic animals : interactions among diet, parasites and predators
Ojala, Katja (2006)All animals face a challenge when defending themselves against several different enemies, e.g. predators and parasites. This has resulted in an enormous variation in defence strategies. Individuals have a limited amount ... -
Breeding near heterospecifics as a defence against brood parasites : can redstarts lower probability of cuckoo parasitism using neighbours?
Moreras, Angela; Tolvanen, Jere; Tornberg, Risto; Mönkkönen, Mikko; Forsman, Jukka T.; Thomson, Robert L. (Springer, 2022)Breeding habitat choice based on the attraction to other species can provide valuable social information and protection benefits. In birds, species with overlapping resources can be a cue of good quality habitats; species ...
