LandValUse: Integrated welfare assessment of climate and biodiversity impacts of land use: From promise to policy solutions

Norske natur- og seminaturlige arealer er viktige for naturmangfold og karbonopptak og for en rekke andre verdifulle naturgoder (økosystemtjenester) både med og uten markedspriser. Mange samfunnssektorer har behov for arealer noe som øker presset på naturarealene, og som gir mer konfliktfylte avv...

Characterizing Oldest Ice in Dome Fuji near the base of the Antarctic Ice Sheet

Antarktisisen er omtrent som en sirkel på 4500 km i diameter, og dens sentrale del stiger nesten 4 km over havoverflaten. Årlig lufttemperatur i det indre Antarktis er rundt -50°C, slik at alt snøfall forblir frossent. Når ny snø legger seg på toppen, så presses eldre snø nedover og blir til is. ...

The genomic basis of temperature adaptation across space

Hvordan tilpasser organismer seg til sitt lokale miljø? Dette spørsmålet står sentralt i evolusjonsbiologien. I en tid med menneskeskapt klimaendringer haster det med å forutsi om bestander og arter vil være i stand til å tilpasse seg fremtidige forhold. For å forstå tilpasning fullt ut, må vi id...

Mechanisms underlying climate-driven shifts in plant phenology and abundance and the link to population performance of a large herbivore

Climate change is rapidly altering patterns of precipitation and temperature (Van Pelt et al. 2016), causing shifts in plant phenology and resource availability for large herbivores (Bjorkman et al. 2020). In the Arctic, weather patterns are increasingly characteristic of earlier springs and dela...
