Journal ArticleDOI
Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L., brown trout Salmo trutta L. and Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus (L.): a review of aspects of their life histories
Anders Klemetsen,Per-Arne Amundsen,J. B. Dempson,Bror Jonsson,Nina Jonsson,Michael F. O'Connell,E. Mortensen +6 more
TL;DR: Various aspects of phenotypic and life-history variation of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L., brown trout Salmo trutta L., and Arctic charr Salvelinus alpinus are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new approach to graphical analysis of feeding strategy from stomach contents data—modification of the Costello (1990) method
TL;DR: A modification of the graphical Costello method is proposed for the analysis of stomach contents data that may be particularly well-suited for the examination of predictions made from optimal foraging, competition and niche theories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heavy metal contamination in freshwater fish from the border region between Norway and Russia
Per-Arne Amundsen,Frode J. Staldvik,Anatolij A. Lukin,N. A. Kashulin,Olga A. Popova,Yuri S. Reshetnikov +5 more
TL;DR: Hg was the only metal where these species differences were possibly related to biomagnification, and the concentrations generally appeared to be inversely related to the trophic level of the fish species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel evolution of ecomorphological traits in the European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus (L.) species complex during postglacial times
Kjartan Østbye,Per-Arne Amundsen,Louis Bernatchez,Anders Klemetsen,Rune Knudsen,Roar Kristoffersen,T. F. Næsje,Kjetil Hindar +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied nine Norwegian lakes in three watercourses, which each harboured pairs of divergent whitefish morphs and compared the morphology and life history of these morphs, documented the extent of genetic differentiation between them and contrasted the niche use of sympatric morphs along both the habitat and resource axes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Culling prey promotes predator recovery--alternative states in a whole-lake experiment.
Lennart Persson,Lennart Persson,Lennart Persson,Per-Arne Amundsen,Per-Arne Amundsen,Per-Arne Amundsen,André M. de Roos,André M. de Roos,André M. de Roos,Anders Klemetsen,Anders Klemetsen,Anders Klemetsen,Rune Knudsen,Rune Knudsen,Rune Knudsen,Raul Primicerio,Raul Primicerio,Raul Primicerio +17 more
TL;DR: It is shown, for predators feeding on prey that exhibit food-dependent growth, that culling of fish prey may promote predator recovery and represents an experimental demonstration of an alternative stable state in a large-scale field system.
