ReSurveyEurope: A database of resurveyed vegetation plots in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-04-16)Aims We introduce ReSurveyEurope — a new data source of resurveyed vegetation plots in Europe, compiled by a collaborative network of vegetation scientists. We describe the scope of this initiative, provide an overview of ... -
Harvesting history affects soil respiration and litterfall but not overall carbon balance in boreal Norway spruce forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025-01-02)Understanding long-term effects of clear-cutting on current soil carbon (C) fluxes in boreal forests is important in the perspective of global C cycling and future forest management decisions. We studied twelve pairs of ... -
Climate Effects on Belowground Tea Litter Decomposition Depend on Ecosystem and Organic Matter Types in Global Wetlands
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-11-25)Patchy global data on belowground litter decomposition dynamics limit our capacity to discern the drivers of carbon preservation and storage across inland and coastal wetlands. We performed a global, multiyear study in ... -
Optimizing plant species composition of green roofs for ecological functionality and biodiversity conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025-01-09)Green roofs provide vital functions within the urban ecosystem, from supporting biodiversity, to sustainable climate-positive ESS provisioning. However, how plant communities should best be designed to reach these objectives, ... -
Development and evaluation of generalized fuel models for predicting fire behaviour in northern European heathlands
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-04-30)Northern European heathlands and moorlands dominated by Calluna vulgaris are internationally recognized for their conservation importance while also supporting traditional, low-intensity agriculture and game hunting. Managed ... -
Approaching building lifetimes and hazard rates through demolition patterns: Case studies for a historical city center
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-12-29)Despite their relevance in building stock modeling, building lifetimes are poorly understood and tend to form the weakest link in forecasting energy use, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, waste generation, and resource use. ... -
Extreme drought impacts have been underestimated in grasslands and shrublands globally
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01-08)Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of short-term (~1 y) drought events—the most common duration of drought—globally. Yet the impact of this intensification of drought on ecosystem functioning remains ... -
Ash dieback: A single-species catastrophe or a cascade of ecological effects in the ground flora?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-10-18)Climate change and human activities have accelerated the spread of non-native species, including forest pests and pathogens, significantly contributing to global biodiversity loss. Pathogens pose a significant threat to ... -
An experimental assessment of biomass loss due to red deer (Cervus elaphus L.) grazing on agricultural grass meadows in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-12-04)In Europe, over a third of the agricultural area is grass meadows used for livestock grazing and fodder production. Grass meadows provide a food source for wild ungulates causing human-wildlife conflicts due to forage ... -
Toward better targeting of mitigation measures for reducing phosphorus losses from land to water: Andrew Sharpley's legacy in Norway and Sweden
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-03-31)Nordic agriculture faces big challenges to reduce phosphorus (P) loss from land to water for improving surface water quality. While understanding the processes controlling P loss and seeking for P mitigation measures, ... -
The effect of weather conditions from heading to harvest on gluten quality of spring wheat – A study of historical data 2005–2022
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025-01-05)The gluten-viscoelastic properties are essential for breadmaking quality and are affected by both genotypes and environments, such as weather conditions. However, it is still not clear how weather conditions cause variation ... -
Tree species replacement from birch to spruce affects eukaryome in boreal forest soil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01-11)Large-scale replacements of native birch with spruce have been carried out in Western Norway for economic reasons. This tree species shift potentially affects biotic components such as the eucaryome, consisting of microscopic ... -
Mapping urban green structures using object-based analysis of satellite imagery: A review
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025-01-01)Urban green structures (UGS) play important roles in enhancing urban ecosystems by providing benefits such as mitigating the urban heat island effect, improving air quality, supporting biodiversity, and aiding in stormwater ... -
The impact of biochar's physicochemical properties on sorption of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-12-10)To better characterize properties governing the sorption of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to biochar, twenty-three diverse biochars were characterized and evaluated as sorbents for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA). ... -
RoadSens: An integrated near-field sensor solution for 3D forest road monitoring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025-02-01)RoadSens is a platform designed to expedite the digitalization process of forest roads, a cornerstone of efficient forest operations and management. We incorporate stereo-vision spatial mapping and deep-learning image ... -
From ideal to reality: governance of AMR in a multi-level setting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-09-10)This paper asks whether, and if so how, it is possible to design a system characterised by coordination across sectors and levels of governance aimed at governing AMR. The ambition is, firstly, to analyse how coordination ... -
