      Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ...
    • Impact of an invasive alien plant on litter decomposition along a latitudinal gradient 

      Helsen, Kenny; Smith, Stuart; Brunet, J; Cousins, Sara A.O.; De Frenne, Pieter; Kimberley, Adam; Kolb, Annette; Lenoir, Jonathan; Ma, Shiyu; Michaelis, Jana; Pule, Jan; Verheyen, Kris; Speed, James David Mervyn; Graae, Bente Jessen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Invasive alien plant effects on ecosystem functions are often difficult to predict across environmental gradients due to the context-dependent interactions between the invader and the recipient communities. Adopting a ...
    • Impact of climate change on alpine vegetation of mountain summits in Norway 

      Vanneste, Thomas; Michelsen, Ottar; Graae, Bente Jessen; Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Holien, Håkon; Hassel, Kristian; Lindmo, Sigrid; Kapás, Rozália Erzsebet; De Frenne, Pieter (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Climate change is affecting the composition and functioning of ecosystems across the globe. Mountain ecosystems are particularly sensitive to climate warming since their biota is generally limited by low temperatures. ...
    • No genetic erosion after five generations for Impatiens glandulifera populations across the invaded range in Europe 

      Helsen, Kenny; Hagenblad, Jenny; Acharya, Kamal Prasad; Brunet, Jörg; Cousins, Sara A. O.; Decocq, Guillaume; De Frenne, Pieter; Kimberley, Adam; Kolb, Anette; Michaelis, Jana; Plue, Jan; Verheyen, Kris; Speed, James D M; Graae, Bente Jessen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Background The observation that many alien species become invasive despite low genetic diversity has long been considered the ‘genetic paradox’ in invasion biology. This paradox is often resolved through the temporal ...
    • 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 ...
