A 24,000-year ancient DNA and pollen record from the Polar Urals reveals temporal dynamics of arctic and boreal plant communities
Clarke, Charlotte L.; Alsos, Inger Greve; Edwards, Mary E.; Paus, Aage; Gielly, Ludovic; Haflidason, Haflidi; Mangerud, Jan; Regnéll, Carl; Hughes, Paul D.M.; Svendsen, John-Inge; Bjune, Anne Elisabeth (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A 24,000-year record of plant community dynamics, based on pollen and ancient DNA from the sediments (sedaDNA) of Lake Bolshoye Shchuchye in the Polar Ural Mountains, provides detailed information on the flora of the Last ... -
Influences of sea level changes and volcanic eruptions on Holocene vegetation in Tonga
Strandberg, Nichola A.; Edwards, Mary E.; Ellison, Joanna C.; Steinbauer, Manuel; Walentowitz, Anna; Fall, Patricia L.; Sear, David; Langdon, Peter G.; Cronin, Shane; Castilla-Beltrán, Alvaro; Croudace, Ian W.; Prebble, Matiu; Gosling, William D.; Nogué, Sandra (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Here, we investigate Mid- to Late-Holocene vegetation changes in low-lying coastal areas in Tonga and how changing sea levels and recurrent volcanic eruptions have influenced vegetation dynamics on four islands of the ... -
Last Glacial Maximum environmental conditions at Andøya, northern Norway; evidence for a northern ice-edge ecological “hotspot”
Alsos, Inger Greve; Sjøgren, Per Johan E; Brown, Antony; Gielly, Ludovic; Merkel, Marie Føreid; Paus, Aage; Lammers, Youri; Edwards, Mary E.; Alm, Torbjørn; Leng, Melanie; Goslar, Tomasz; Langdon, Cathrine; Bakke, Jostein; Van Der Bilt, Willem (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Andøya on the NW coast of Norway is a key site for understanding the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) in northern Europe. Controversy has arisen concerning the local conditions, especially about the timing and extent of local ... -

Here we report a large-scale ... -
Long-term trajectories of non-native vegetation on islands globally
Walentowitz, Anna; Lenzner, Bernd; Essl, Franz; Strandberg, Nichola; Castilla-Beltrán, Alvaro; Fernández-Palacios, José María; Björck, Svante; Connor, Simon; Haberle, Simon G.; Ljung, Karl; Prebble, Matiu; Wilmshurst, Janet M.; Froyd, Cynthia A.; de Boer, Erik J.; de Nascimento, Lea; Edwards, Mary E.; Stevenson, Janelle; Beierkuhnlein, Carl; Steinbauer, Manuel; Nogué, Sandra (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Human-mediated changes in island vegetation are, among others, largely caused by the introduction and establishment of non-native species. However, data on past changes in non-native plant species abundance that predate ... -

Sedimentary ancient DNA shows terrestrial plant richness continuously increased over the Holocene in northern Fennoscandia
Rijal, Dilli Prasad; Heintzman, Peter D.; Lammers, Youri; Yoccoz, Nigel; Lorberau, Kelsey; Pitelkova, Iva; Goslar, Tomasz; Murguzur, Francisco Javier Ancin; Salonen, J. Sakari; Helmens, Karin F.; Bakke, Jostein; Edwards, Mary E.; Alm, Torbjørn; Bråthen, Kari Anne; Brown, Antony; Alsos, Inger Greve (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The effects of climate change on species richness are debated but can be informed by the past. Here, we generated a sedimentary ancient DNA dataset covering 10 lakes and applied novel methods for data harmonization. We ...
