Climate and land-use drive the functional composition of vascular plant assemblages across Norway

Petersen, Tanja Kofod; Vuorinen, Katariina Elsa M; Bendiksby, Mika; Speed, James David Mervyn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)

Traditionally, biogeography has described the distribution of species. But as plant functional traits and functional diversity underpin ecosystem dynamics, understanding drivers of functional diversity at biogeographical ...
The paradox of searching efficiency or why are violent population cycles so uncommon in terrestrial ecosystem

Oksanen, Lauri; Vuorinen, Katariina Elsa M; Oksanen, Tarja Maarit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)

The searching efficiency of predators depends on the balance between the adaptations of the predator and the counter-adaptations of the prey. In this evolutionary race, the prey should normally have the upper hand, as it ...
Spatial patterns of phylogenetic and species diversity of fennoscandian vascular plants in protected areas

Matten, Damaris Marina; Mienna, Ida Marielle; Bieker, Vanessa Carina; Mishler, Brent D; Moen, Victoria Stornes; Nygård, Malene Østreng; Vuorinen, Katariina Elsa M; Bendiksby, Mika; Martin, Michael David; Speed, James David Mervyn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)

Protected areas are one of the main strategic means for conserving biodiversity. Yet, the design of protected areas usually neglects phylogenetic diversity, an important diversity measure. In this paper we assess the ...
