      Erlandsson, Rasmus Ingel; Bjerke, Jarle W.; Finne, Eirik Aasmo; Myneni, Ranga B.; Piao, Shilong; Wang, Xuhui; Virtanen, Tarmo; Räsänen, Aleksi; Kumpula, Timo; Kolari, Tiina H.M.; Tahvanainen, Teemu; Tømmervik, Hans (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Although generally given little attention in vegetation studies, ground-dwelling (terricolous) lichens are major contributors to overall carbon and nitrogen cycling, albedo, biodiversity and biomass in many high-latitude ...
    • Feasibility of active handheld NDVI sensors for monitoring of lichen ground cover 

      Erlandsson, Rasmus; Arneberg, Marit Klemetsen; Tømmervik, Hans; Finne, Eirik Aasmo; Nilsen, Lennart; Bjerke, Jarle W. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Vegetation indices are corner stones in vegetation monitoring. However, previous field studies on lichens and NDVI have been based on passive sensors. Active handheld sensors, with their own light sources, enables high- ...
