    • Functional traits of alpine plant communities show long-term resistance to changing herbivore densities 

      Vuorinen, Katariina Elsa Maria; Austrheim, Gunnar; Mysterud, Atle; Gya, Ragnhild; Vandvik, Vigdis; Grytnes, John Arvid; Speed, James David Mervyn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Herbivores shape vegetation by suppressing certain plant species while benefitting others. By thus modifying plant species functional composition, herbivores affect carbon cycling, albedo, vegetation structure and species' ...
    • Natural and cultural heritage in mountain landscapes: towards an integrated valuation
