Bending the curve: Operationalizing national Red Lists to customize conservation actions to reduce extinction risk
Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Pedersen, Bård; Evju, Marianne; Magnussen, Kristin; Mair, Louise; Bolam, Friederike C.; McGowan, Philip J.K.; Vestergaard, Kjetil Mastad; Braa, Jørund; Rusch, Graciela (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Human activity is accelerating biodiversity loss despite international commitments to prevent extinction and habitat degradation. To bend the curve, international goals must be translated into national targets and actions. ... -
Conserving on the edge: genetic variation and structure in Northern populations of the endangered plant Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. (Lamiaceae)
Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Westergaard, Kristine Bakke; Kleven, Oddmund; Evju, Marianne; Endrestøl, Anders; Brandrud, Marie Kristine; Stabbetorp, Odd Egil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Loss of biodiversity is accelerating, including the loss of genetic diversity. Conservation of small, isolated populations may be important, as they can provide valuable contributions to overall genetic variation and ... -
The identification and distribution of Sphagnum balticum (Russow) C.E.O.Jensen in Britain
Callaghan, Des A.; Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Hassel, Kristian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Introduction. The aims of this study were to help clarify the identification of Sphagnum balticum in Britain, to review its distribution, and to investigate the possible presence of hybrids between it and either S. cuspidatum ... -
A joint climate and nature cure: A transformative change perspective
Rusch, Graciela; Bartlett, Jesamine; Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Lein, Ulrika; Nordén, Jenni; Sandvik, Hanno; Stokland, Håkon B. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Climate change has considerably dominated science-policy dialogue, public debate, and subsequently environmental policies since the three ‘‘Rio Conventions’’ were born. This has led to practically independent courses of ... -
Learning from scientific literature: Can indicators for measuring success be standardized in “on the ground” restoration?
Evju, Marianne; Hagen, Dagmar; Kyrkjeeide, Magni Olsen; Köhler, Berit (Journal article, 2020)The Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) Primer identifies key ecosystem attributes for evaluating restoration outcome. Broad attribute categories could be necessary due to the large variety of restoration projects, but ... -
