Shorebird species lose 1–10% of their total populations annually on the East Asian–Australasian Flyway in just 19 stopover sites in China, mainly by hunting and bird deterrence measures.Mortality rates are unsustainable for most species

Population stratification in Northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) off Iceland evident from RADseq analysis - BMC Ecology and Evolution The northern shrimp Pandalus borealis (ice. Stóri kampalampi) is a North Atlantic crustacean of significant commercial interest which has been harvested consistently in Icelandic waters since 1936. In...

Nýja greinin okkur um stofngreiningu á milli innfjarðar og úthafs rækju (stóra kampalampa, Pandalus borealis) á Norður Íslandi kom út í dag.
Við sjáum lítinn sem engan mun á milli innfjarðar rækja, en greinilegan stigul á milli innfjarðar og úthafsins.

Hi Bluesky! I'm new to this platform, so I thought I’d introduce myself. I'm a PhD student studying Arctic foxes in Iceland. My research focuses on their behavior, genetic diversity, and diet. Excited to connect with fellow biologists, ecologists, and wildlife researchers!
