• 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 ...

• The effect of prey resources on evolutionary and ecological dynamics of prey (Serratia marcescens) and predator (Tetrahymena thermophila) 

  Friman, Ville-Petri (2006)

• Parasite avoidance behaviours in aquatic environments 

  Behringer, Donald C.; Karvonen, Anssi; Bojko, Jamie (Royal Society, 2018)

  Parasites, including macroparasites, protists, fungi, bacteria and viruses, can impose a heavy burden upon host animals. However, hosts are not without defences. One aspect of host defence, behavioural avoidance, has been ...

• Behavioural adaptations of argulid parasites (Crustacea: Branchiura) to major challenges in their life cycle 

  Mikheev, Viktor N.; Pasternak, Anna F.; Valtonen, Tellervo (BioMed Central Ltd., 2015)

  Fish lice (Argulus spp.) are obligate ectoparasites, which contrary to most aquatic parasites, retain the ability to swim freely throughout the whole of their life. In fish farms, they can quickly increase in numbers and ...
