Modelling reveals the effects of ten hypothetical offshore wind farms and highlights important knowledge gaps.

A new study shows how the combination of drone imagery and artificial neural networks can strengthen the monitoring of seabirds along the Norwegian coast. The method delivers high accuracy while minimizing disturbance to birdlife – an important advance at a time when many seabird species are in decline.

Small, isolated populations are driving inbreeding in Norway’s wild reindeer, leaving them increasingly vulnerable. New DNA analyses also reveal extensive genetic mixing with semi-domesticated reindeer.

Seabirds are being pushed to the brink by human activity at sea. Now, researchers working closely with industry have developed a new tool designed to support better coexistence between seabirds and commercial activities in Norwegian waters.

A new study published in Marine Biology reveals that black guillemots (Cepphus grylle) from two Norwegian colonies exhibit distinctly different migration strategies during the winter. The study documents their behaviour and habitat use outside the breeding season, and thereby provides crucial knowledge for conservation and management in coastal areas.

NINA is co-organizing a session at ESP Europe 2026 Conference in Prague focused on the challenges and solutions to implement Urban Ecosystem Accounting under the UN SEEA-EA framework.
