• Advancing restoration ecology: A new approach to predict time to recovery 

      Rydgren, Knut; Halvorsen, Rune; Töpper, Joachim Paul; Auestad, Inger; Hamre, Liv Norunn; Jongejans, Eelke; Sulavik, Jan (Journal article; 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 ...
    • Characterisation and mapping of landscape types, a case study from Norway 

      Erikstad, Lars; Uttakleiv, Lars Andre; Halvorsen, Rune (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The European Landscape Convention emphasises the human perception of landscapes in its definition of the landscape, and promotes citizen participation in landscape management processes. On the other hand, landscape ...
    • European mushroom assemblages are darker in cold climates 

      Franz-Sebastian, Krah; Büntgen, Ulf; Schaefer, Hanno; Müller, Jörg; Andrew, Carrie; Boddy, Lynne; Diez, Jeffrey; Egli, Simon; Freckleton, Robert; Gange, Alan C.; Halvorsen, Rune; Heegaard, Einar; Heideroth, Antje; Heibl, Christoph; Heilmann-Clausen, Jacob; Høiland, Klaus; Kar, Ritwika; Kauserud, Håvard; Kirk, Paul M.; Kuyper, Thomas W.; Krisai-Greilhuber, Irmgard; Nordén, Jenni; Papastefanou, Phillip; Senn-Irlet, Beatrice; Bässler, Claus (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
    • European mushroom assemblages are phylogenetically structured by temperature 

      Bässler, Claus; Heilmann-Clausen, Jacob; Andrew, Carrie; Boddy, Lynne; Büntgen, Ulf; Diez, Jeffrey; Heegaard, Einar; Egli, Simon; Gange, Alan C.; Halvorsen, Rune; Kauserud, Håvard; Kirk, Paul M.; Krisai-Greilhuber, Irmgard; Kuyper, Thomas W.; Nordén, Jenni; Senn-Irlet, Beatrice; Krah, Franz-Sebastian (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Recent global warming affects species compositions at an unprecedented rate. To predict climate-induced changes in species assemblages, a better understanding of the link between species occurrence and climate is needed. ...
    • Index Measuring Land Use Intensity—A Gradient‐Based Approach 

      Erikstad, Lars; Simensen, Trond; Bakkestuen, Vegar; Halvorsen, Rune (Journal article, 2023)
      To monitor the changes in the landscape, and to relate these to ecological processes, we need robust and reproducible methods for quantifying the changes in landscape patterns. The main aim of this study is to present, ...
    • Methods for landscape characterisation and mapping: A systematic review 

      Simensen, Trond; Halvorsen, Rune; Erikstad, Lars (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Due to the multidisciplinary nature of landscape research, many different systems and methods for landscape identification and classification exist. This paper provides a systematic review of 54 contemporary landscape ...
    • MIAT: Modular R-wrappers for flexible implementation of MaxEnt distribution modelling 

      Mazzoni, Sabrina; Halvorsen, Rune; Bakkestuen, Vegar (Journal article, 2015)
    • Tilbakegang for flueblom Ophrys insectifera i Røsskleiva naturreservat i perioden 1984–2017 

      Olsen, Siri Lie; Brandrud, Tor Erik; Halvorsen, Rune (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      The red-listed orchid Ophrys insectifera is in decline despite years of protection. One of the species’ most important habitats is seasonally moist calcareous pine forest. This characteristic and species-rich forest type ...
    • Towards a systematics of ecodiversity: The EcoSyst framework 

      Halvorsen, Rune; Skarpaas, Olav; Bryn, Anders; Bratli, Harald; Erikstad, Lars; Simensen, Trond; Lieungh, Eva (Journal article, 2020)
      Background Although a standard taxonomy of organisms has existed for nearly 300 years, no consensus has yet been reached on principles for systematization of ecological diversity (i.e., the co‐ordinated variation of abiotic ...
