Stay or go – how topographic complexity influences alpine plant population and community responses to climate change
Graae, Bente Jessen; Vandvik, Vigdis; Armbruster, W. Scott; Eiserhardt, Wolf L.; Svenning, Jens-Christian; Hylander, Kristoffer; Ehrlén, Johan; Speed, James D.M.; Klanderud, Kari; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Milbau, Ann; Opedal, Øystein Hjorthol; Alsos, Inger G.; Ejrnæs, Rasmus; Bruun, Hans Henrik; Birks, H. John B.; Westergaard, Kristine Bakke; Birks, Hilary H; Lenoir, Jonathan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In the face of climate change, populations have two survival options − they can remain in situ and tolerate the new climatic conditions (“stay”), or they can move to track their climatic niches (“go”). For sessile and ... -
Teatime in the Serengeti: macrodetritivores sustain recalcitrant plant litter decomposition across human-modified tropical savannahs
Sundsdal, Anders; Graae, Bente Jessen; Speed, James David Mervyn; Bukombe, John; Mtweve, Philipo Jacob; Arneberg, Marit K.; Haukenes, Vilde; Grevskott, Ragnhild TH.; Smith, Stuart (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Background and aims Intensification of savannah land-use is predicted to negatively influence soil biodiversity and functioning such as litter decomposition by detritivores. Loss of macrodetritivores, particularly termites, ... -
The burning question: does fire affect habitat selection and forage preference of the black rhinoceros Diceros bicornis in East African savannahs?
Anderson, T.M.; Ngoti, P. M.; Nzunda, M.L.; Griffith, D. M.; Speed, James David Mervyn; Fossøy, Frode; Røskaft, Eivin; Graae, Bente Jessen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The conservation of threatened species requires information on how management activities influence habitat quality. The Critically Endangered black rhinoceros Diceros bicornis is restricted to savannahs representing c. 5% ... -
The Effect of Latitude, Litter and Vegetation type on the Performance of the Invasive Species Impatiens glandulifera
Mujuni, Nelson (Master thesis, 2015)Background and Aims Impatiens glandulifera is a blacklisted invasive alien plant species that exhibits high phenotypic variation along latitudinal gradients in its invaded range in Europe, with a preference for riparian, ... -
The Feeding Ecology of Eastern Black Rhinoceroses (Diceros bicornis michaeli) in southern Serengeti national Park, Tanzania.
Ngoti, Philbert (Master thesis, 2017)This study has been carried out to improve the knowledge on the feeding ecology and impacts of fire on black rhinoceroses browse abundance in southern Serengeti National Park. It attempts to enlighten on forage preferences ... -
The impact of wild and domestic herbivores on aboveground productivity in an East-African savannah
Arneberg, Marit Klemetsen (Master thesis, 2019)Planteproduktivitet på Afrikanske savanner er allment kjent for å avhenge av tidsmessige og romlige variasjoner i klima, jordegenskaper og forstyrrelser, hovedsakelig brann og beitepress. Menneskelig drevet arealbrukendring ... -
Topographic complexity and biotic resilience to climate change
Opedal, Øystein Hjorthol (Master thesis, 2013)Topographically complex alpine terrains create a mosaic of diverse microclimates over short distances. This study investigated the extent of small-scale variation in temperature and soil moisture using dense arrays of ... -

Topsoil restoration of three construction sites in central Norway: Comparing restoration outcome by species composition and soil characteristics in relation to three reference communities
Andersen, Markus (Master thesis, 2023)Økologisk restaurering er et verktøy som kan brukes til å lette det uunngåelige presset som bygging av infrastruktur medfører på vårt landskap og natur. I denne studien gjennomførte jeg en analyse av artssammensetning og ... -

Vegetation change on mountaintops in northern Sweden: Stable vascular-plant but reordering of lichen and bryophyte communities
Hagenberg, Liyenne Wu Chen; Vanneste, Thomas; Opedal, Øystein Hjorthol; Petlund, Hanne Torsdatter; Björkman, Mats Peter; Björk, Robert G.; Holien, Håkon; Limpens, Juul; Molau, Ulf; Graae, Bente Jessen; De Frenne, Pieter (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Alpine ecosystems harbor remarkably diverse and distinct plant communities that are characteristically limited to harsh, and cold climatic conditions. As a result of thermal limitation to species occurrence, mountainous ...
