The Origins of Northern European Autographa Gamma Individuals Evaluated Using Hydrogen Stable Isotopes

2018

1. Many insect species are migratory. As the spring progresses, adults gradually depart from their over‐wintering habitats and arrive in northern zones where they reproduce during the summer. Understanding this transgenerational and highly adaptive migratory behaviour is crucial when interpreting life cycle dynamics of many insect pests. 2. Origins of migratory silver Y moths, Autographa gamma (Linnaeus, 1758), captured from Finland, were studied with stable hydrogen analysis of their wings (δ2Hw). 3. The difference between spring and autumn generation δ2Hw values indicate different geographical natal origins. The probability surface map shows that the spring generation probably emerged in …

Short sea migration and precocious maturation in reared Atlantic salmon post-smolts in the northern Baltic Sea

2017

Abstract Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) display significant variation in life history traits, including migration patterns and age at maturity. Hatchery rearing has been shown to affect the life history, and rearing-induced changes may include unfavourable consequences, e.g. shortened sea migration period and smaller size at maturity. We report on a new phenomenon of life history of reared Atlantic salmon in the Baltic Sea area: small-sized salmon returning to freshwater only a few months after release as smolts. These “one-sea-summer (1SS)” salmon were ca. 35 cm in length and weighed ca. 400 g, being clearly larger than smolts, but substantially smaller than one-sea-winter (1SW) salmon f…

Maternally‐transferred thyroid hormones and life‐history variation in birds

2022

1. In vertebrates, thyroid hormones (THs) play an important role in the regulation of growth, development, metabolism, photoperiodic responses and migration. Maternally transferred THs are important for normal early-phase embryonic development when embryos are not able to produce endogenous THs. Previous studies have shown that variation in maternal THs within the physiological range can influence offspring phenotype. 2. Given the essential functions of maternal THs in development and metabolism, THs may be a mediator of life-history variation across species. 3. We tested the hypothesis that differences in life histories are associated with differences in maternal TH transfer across species…

Transcontinental 2200 km migration of a Nathusius’ pipistrelle (Pipistrellus nathusii) across Europe

2021

A male Pipistrellus nathusii ringed in Pape Natural Park (S Latvia) in August 2015 was recovered recently dead in Pitillas’ Lagoon Natural Reserve (N Spain) in March 2017. At 2224 km in SSW direction, this is the first documented bat migration between these countries and worldwide the longest migration record of a bat. We also report other observations of this species in autumn in Northern Spain, suggesting that the Iberian Peninsula may be an important wintering area for Nathusius’ pipistrelles. Conservation measures should be agreed on by countries along the migration routes to improve the protection of this species. nonPeerReviewed

Migration strategies of brown trout (Salmo trutta) in a subarctic river system as revealed by stable isotope analysis

2018

We estimated the proportions of anadromous and freshwater‐resident brown trout (Salmo trutta) in different parts of the subarctic River Näätämöjoki/Neidenelva system (Finland and Norway) using carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen stable isotope analyses of archived scales as identifiers of migration strategy. Our results showed that carbon stable isotope values were the best predictor of migration strategy. Most individuals fell into two clearly distinct groups representing anadromous (47%) or freshwater‐resident (42%) individuals, but some fish had intermediate carbon values suggesting repeated movement between freshwater and the sea. The proportion of anadromous individuals decreased steadily wi…

Bean goose migration shows a long-term temporal shift to earlier spring, but not to later autumn migration in Finland

2023

Ilmastonmuutos vaatii eliöitä mukauttamaan perinnöllisiä tai opittuja käyttäytymismallejaan muuttuviin ympäristöolosuhteisiin. Erityisen alttiita muutoksille voi olla erilaisten habitaattien välillä muuttavat linnut, joiden selviytyminen on yhteydessä muuton onnistuneeseen ajoittamiseen. Tässä tutkimuksessa käytimme metsähanhesta (Anser fabalis) avoimeen lintutietopalveluun, Tiiraan (tiira.fi – BirdLife Suomi), kerättyjä havaintoja selvittääksemme, onko lajin muuton ajoituksessa tapahtunut muutosta viimeisten 40 vuoden aikana. Lisäksi selvitimme ajoituksen yhteyttä muuton aikaiseen suursäätilaan käyttämällä Pohjois-Atlantin suursäätilaa kuvaavaa NAO-indeksiä. Tutkitulla ajanjaksolla 1978–20…

"Ostanko pyörän vai lähdenkö Amerikkaan?" : monimuuttajat Pohjois-Amerikkaan Ilmajoelta 1893-1920

2015

*Ostanko pyörän vai lähdenkö Amerikkaan, on ilmajokelainen sananparsi Aulis J. Alasen vuonna 1953 ilmestyneestä teoksesta Ilmajoki vuoden 1809 jälkeen. Tutkimus selvittää eteläpohjalaisen Ilmajoen paikkakunnan muuttoilmiötä Pohjois- Amerikkaan vuosina 1893 – 1920, keskittyen monimuuttajiin eli henkilöihin jotka ovat lähteneet matkalle useammin kuin kerran viimeistään vuonna 1920. Lähteinä tutkimuksessa on käytetty Siirtolaisuusinstituutin siirtolaisrekisterin passi- ja matkustajaluetteloita sekä Ellis Island ja Ancestry internetpohjaisia tietokantoja. Arkistolähteinä on käytetty myös pääosin Ilmajoen seurakunnan kirkonarkistoja ja täydentävin osin muiden seurakuntien ja maistraattien arkist…

Mass Communications as a Vehicle to Lure Russian Émigrés Homeward

2011

After the millions of wartime displaced citizens had been forcibly returned to the Soviet Union after the Second World War, the Soviet Union inaugurated a new type of campaign in the mid-1950s to get all the remaining Soviet citizens and former émigrés from Sovietoccupied areas to migrate back. In this campaign, the Soviets used all the means of mass communication they were able to produce, especially radio combined with the press and direct contact with people. The campaign was not very successful, at least not among the people it was supposed to lure back: people residing in Europe. However, many people, especially from Latin America, migrated back to the Soviet Union, only to be disappoi…
