      Mukhopadhyay, Ritwika; Næsset, Erik; Gobakken, Terje; Mienna, Ida Marielle; Candelas Bielza, Jaime; Austrheim, Gunnar; Persson, Henrik Jan; Ørka, Hans Ole; Roald, Bjørn-Eirik; Bollandsås, Ole Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Due to climate change, treelines are moving to higher elevations and latitudes. The estimation of biomass of trees and shrubs advancing into alpine areas is necessary for carbon reporting. Remotely sensed (RS) data have ...
    • The relative role of climate and herbivory in driving treeline dynamics along a latitudinal gradient 

      Mienna, Ida Marielle; Speed, James David Mervyn; Klanderud, Kari; Austrheim, Gunnar; Næsset, Erik; Bollandsås, Ole Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Aim The treeline is an obvious ecotone between forest and tundra ecosystems. Climatic warming is expected to lead to the treeline advancing, although in many cases this has not been observed. This is most likely because ...
