Interglacials and Glacials - Natural Experiments in Biodiversity Dynamics

Det finnes tre hovedhypoteser for å forklare artssammensetningen og strukturen til et plantesamfunn: 1) eksterne faktorer eller ytre miljøpåvirkning (f. eks. klimaendring), 2) interne faktorer eller samspill mellom artene (f. eks. konkurranse, fasilitering), og 3) nøytrale og/eller tilfeldige pro...

KLIMAFORSK-Stort program klima

No-analogue climates and ecological responses in the past and future (NoAClim)

"Fossil pollen and climate models suggest a messy world in 2100, as surviving species reshuffle into entirely new combinations, creating 'no-analogue' ecosystems" (Fox 2007, Science 316:823). This project is designed to test this scenario for Norden and t he Baltic Countries. Its approach is to d...

FORINFRA-Nasj.sats. forskn.infrastrukt

Research Infrastructure for High-Precision Palaeoecological Analyses

Palaeoecology is the ecology of the past and is concerned with the reconstruction of past flora, fauna, populations, communities, landscapes, and environments and with the understanding of the causes of observed changes seen in the palaeoecological record preserved as fossil pollen, seeds, and a...

NORKLIMA-Klimaendringer og konsekvenser for Norge

Using the ensemble approach to model Arctic species distributions to reconstruct past climate based on plant macrofossils

To assess the sensitivity of species in the Arctic area to climate change it is important to understand the relationship between species distributions and climate. Recently, there has been a major development within species-climate modelling with the ense mble approach developed by Araújo and New...

SUPKUF-Strategiske univiversitetsprogrammer KUF

Norwegian palaeoenvironments and climates (NORPEC) as reconstructed from lake sediments

Universitetet i Bergen har lange faglige tradisjoner innen kvartær-geologiske, -botaniske, -zoologiske og statistiske undersøkelser av paleomiljøet basert på innsjøsedimenter. Det har blitt utviklet mange geologiske, botaniske og statistiske teknikker de siste 10 år, og det er derfor et utstrakt...
