Conserving on the edge: genetic variation and structure in Northern populations of the endangered plant Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. (Lamiaceae)
(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 ... -
Contrasting multi-taxa functional diversity patterns along vegetation structure gradients of woody pastures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Woody pastures represent keystone habitats for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, contributing to increased resource availability, landscape heterogeneity and structural variability. High taxonomic diversity is closely ... -
Setting reference levels and limits for good ecological condition in terrestrial ecosystems – Insights from a case study based on the IBECA approach
(Journal article, 2020)Effective evidence-based nature conservation and habitat management relies on developing and refining our methodological toolbox for detecting critical ecological changes at an early stage. This requires not only optimizing ... -
Synergies and trade-offs between ecosystem services in an alpine ecosystem grazed by sheep – An experimental approach
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Domestic livestock drives ecosystem changes in many of the world’s mountain regions, and can be the dominant influenceon soil, habitat and wildlife dynamics. Grazing impacts on ecosystem services (ES) vary according to ... -
Wooded hay meadows as viable production systems in sustainable small-scale farming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Wooded hay meadows provide livestock fodder in the form of both foliage from pollarded trees and hay from the understorey, and can be part of an environmentally friendly agroforestry system. However, trees may also have a ...
