(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Societal Impact Statement Foraging wild food plants is sometimes perceived as a conservation threat or, alternatively, as an opportunity for sustainable development. Little is known of how foragers themselves define and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)Melting curves of Ca-perovskite (pure CaSiO3) were determined by ab initio density functional theory, using two solid-liquid coexistence methods and two free energy approaches, in the form of thermodynamic integration and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Amazonia encompasses extensive forests in areas that are periodically inundated by overflowing rivers. The inundation depth and duration vary according to the slope of the terrain and distance to major water bodies. This ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Grassland and other herbaceous communities cover significant portions of Earth's terrestrial surface and provide many critical services, such as carbon sequestration, wildlife habitat, and food production. Forecasts of ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Typically much smaller in number than their mainland counterparts, island populations are ideal systems to investigate genetic threats to small populations. The Svalbard reindeer (Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus) is an ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)We present an addendum to the list of known specimens of Imperial Woodpecker Campephilus imperialis published by Brown & Clark in 2009. The addendum adds a total of 31 specimens, comprising 15 mounts, ten study skins, three ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)1. Species composition is a vital attribute of any ecosystem. Accordingly, ecological restoration often has the original, or “natural,” species composition as its target. However, we still lack adequate methods for predicting ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Alpine plant radiations are common across all major mountain systems of the world, and have been regarded as the main explanation for the species diversity found within these areas. To study the mechanisms behind the origin ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Distantly related lineages of the enigmatic giant rosette plants of tropical alpine environments provide classical examples of convergent adaptation. For the giant senecios (Dendrosenecio), the endemic landmarks of the ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / SubmittedVersion, 2021)1. It is known that many animal species senesce demographically, showing a decrease in survival and/or fertility with age. Although there is mounting evidence for and against senescence in various flowering plant species, ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)Red Queen (RQ) theory states that adaptation does not protect species from extinction because their competitors are continually adapting alongside them. RQ was founded on the apparent independence of extinction risk and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)We present the results of an inventory and status assessment of alien species in Norway. The inventory covered all known multicellular neobiota, 2496 in total, 1039 of which were classified as naturalised. The latter ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)1. Due to globalisation, trade and transport, the spread of alien species is increasing dramatically. Some alien species become ecologically harmful by threatening native biota. This can lead to irreversible changes in ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2024)Abstract Island systems provide important contexts for studying processes underlying lineage migration, species diversification, and organismal extinction. The Hawaiian endemic mints (Lamiaceae family) are the second largest ...
