Guillermo; Currier, Alain; Egelkraut, Dagmar Dorothea; Forbes, Bruce C.; Hallinger, Martin; Heijmans, Monique; Hermanutz, Luise; Hik, David S.; Hofgaard, Annika; Holmgren, Milena; Huebner, Diane C.; Høye, Toke T.; Jónsdóttir, Ingibjörg S.; Kaarlejärvi, Elina; Kissler, Emilie; Kumpula, Timo; Limpens, Juul; Myers-Smith, Isla H.; Normand, Signe; Post, Eric; Rocha, Adrian V.; Schmidt, Niels Martin; Skarin, Anna; Soininen, Eeva M; Sokolov, Aleksandr; Sokolova, Natalia; Speed, James David Mervyn; Street, Lorna E.; Tananaev, Nikita; Tremblay, Jean-Pierre; Urbanowicz, Christine; Watts, David A.; Zimmermann, Heike H.; Olofsson, Johan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Spatial variation in plant chemical defence towards herbivores can help us understand variation in herbivore top–down control of shrubs in the Arctic and possibly also shrub responses to global warming. Less defended, ...

    • Complexity revealed in the greening of the Arctic 

      Myers-Smith, Isla H.; Kerby, Jeffrey T.; Phoenix, Gareth K.; Bjerke, Jarle W.; Epstein, Howard E.; Assmann, Jakob J.; John, Christian; Andreu-Hayles, Laia; Angers-Blondin, Sandra; Beck, Pieter S. A.; Berner, Logan T.; Bhatt, Uma S.; Bjorkman, Anne D.; Blok, Daan; Bryn, Anders; Christiansen, Casper Tai; Cornelissen, J. Hans C.; Cunliffe, Andrew M.; Elmendorf, Sarah C.; Forbes, Bruce C.; Goetz, Scott J.; Hollister, Robert D.; de Jong, Rogier; Loranty, Michael M.; Macias-Fauria, Marc; Maseyk, Kadmiel; Normand, Signe; Olofsson, Johan; Parker, Thomas C.; Parmentier, Frans-Jan W.; Post, Eric; Schaepman-Strub, Gabriela; Stordal, Frode; Sullivan, Patrick F.; Thomas, Haydn J.D.; Tømmervik, Hans; Treharne, Rachael; Tweedie, Craig E.; Walker, Donald A.; Wilmking, Martin; Wipf, Sonja (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      As the Arctic warms, vegetation is responding, and satellite measures indicate widespread greening at high latitudes. This ‘greening of the Arctic’ is among the world’s most important large-scale ecological responses to ...

    • Critical seasonal conditions in the reindeer-herding year: A synopsis of factors and events in Fennoscandia and north-western Russia 

      Laptander, Roza; Horstkotte, Tim; Habeck, Joachim Otto; Rasmus, Sirpa; Komu, Teresa; Matthes, Heidrun; Tømmervik, Hans; Istomin, Kirill; Eronen, Jussi T.; Forbes, Bruce C. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      In this article, we identify what herders in Fennoscandia and northwestern Russia see as critical conditions and events in the annual reindeer herding cycle. Indigenous S´ami and Yamal reindeer herders identify eight ...

    • Focus on recent, present and future Arctic and boreal productivity and biomass changes 

      Tømmervik, Hans; Forbes, Bruce C. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The reduction of cold temperature constraints on photosynthesis in recent decades has led to extended growing seasons and increased plant productivity (greening) in significant parts of Polar, Arctic and Boreal regions, ...

    • Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome 

      Bjorkman, Anne D.; Myers-Smith, Isla H.; Elmendorf, Sarah C.; Normand, Signe; Rüger, Nadja; Beck, Pieter S. A.; Blach-Overgaard, Anne; Blok, Daan; Cornelissen, J.

      The tundra is warming more rapidly than any other biome on Earth, and the potential ramifications are far-reaching because of global feedback effects between vegetation and climate. A better understanding of how environmental ...

    • Where do the treeless tundra areas of northern highlands fit in the global biome system: toward an ecologically natural subdivision of the tundra biome 

      Virtanen, Risto; Oksanen, Lauri Kalervo; Oksanen, Tarja Maarit; Cohen, Juval; Forbes, Bruce C.; Johansen, Bernt; Käyhkö, Jukka; Olofsson, Johan; Pulliainen, Jouni; Tømmervik, Hans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)
      According to some treatises, arctic and alpine sub-biomes are ecologically similar, whereas others find them highly dissimilar. Most peculiarly, large areas of northern tundra highlands fall outside of the two recent ...
