Quick and cost-effective mapping of biodiversity have been invisible, and yet right under our noses. The results are now published in Nature.

Now you can easily see how much farmed salmon interbreeds with wild Atlantic salmon.

New statistical models map for the first time suitable habitats and their connectivity, now and in the future, for solitary bees, moose and 14 species of trees. An invaluable tool to identify and prioritise areas for conservation and restoration. 

NRK enlisted the help of NINA to shed light on a dark reality: while Norwegian nature is being lost bit-fot-bit, no one is watching.

New indicator for status of seabirds combines population size, adult survival and breeding success.

A new EU project launched last week will evaluate changes in bird abundance and distributions in Europe and develop new tools to meet global biodiversity targets for 2030.

American children have been inspired by NINA’s research on painting wind turbine rotor blades black to reduce bird collisions. This has taken them to the top of the First Lego League.

When the seed rich hay from traditional Norwegian hay meadows is put to use to grow flower meadows in urban areas, both pollinators and people win.  

Two new research projects will investigate the impacts of large-scale development of wind energy along the coast and offshore on migrating birds and marine life.

The advantages for animals migrating to northern breeding grounds are being eroded, as the animals experience lower food availability, higher pathogen pressure and increased predation rates.

The release of Norwegian white-tailed sea eagle fledglings this summer marks a milestone in the restoration of the species in Europe.

More than 38 500 species are threatened with extinction globally. A new tool can help reverse this trend.
