      Aim Biodiversity databases are valuable resources for understanding plant species distributions and dynamics, but they may insufficiently represent the actual geographic distribution and climatic niches of species. Here ...
    • Environmental variables driving species composition in subarctic springs in the face of climate change 

      Miller, Tara K.; Heegaard, Einar; Hassel, Kristian; Kapfer, Jutta (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Questions Which environmental variables are most important in determining plant species composition in subarctic springs? Do observed patterns differ between typical wetland and general matrix‐derived species? Location ...
    • Impacts of an invasive plant on primary production: Testing a functional trait-based framework with a greenhouse experiment 

      Helsen, Kenny; Kapás, Rozália Erzsebet; Rakvaag, Grete; Speed, James David Mervyn; Graae, Bente Jessen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Questions Predicting when invasive species will affect ecosystem functioning remains problematic, with strong contingency upon both the invasive species and the recipient community's identities. Adopting a functional ...
    • Long-term effects of nutrient enrichment controlling plant species and functional composition in a boreal rich fen 

      Øien, Dag-Inge; Pedersen, Bård; Kozub, Łukasz; Goldstein, Klara; Wilk, Mateusz (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Questions: How does long-term increase in nutrient availability affect species composition, species diversity and functional composition in boreal rich fens, and how does this differ from short-term effects? What are the ...
    • 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 ...
