• Consistent trait-environment relationships within and across tundra plant communities 

      Kemppinen, Julia; Niittynen, Pekka; le Roux, Peter C.; Momberg, Mia; Happonen, Konsta; Aalto, Juha; Rautakoski, Helena; Enquist, Brian J.; Vandvik, Vigdis; Rechsteiner, Aud Helen Halbritter; Maitner, Brian S.; Luoto, Miska (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      A fundamental assumption in trait-based ecology is that relationships between traits and environmental conditions are globally consistent. We use field-quantified microclimate and soil data to explore if trait–environment ...
    • Geomorphological processes shape plant community traits in the Arctic 

      Kemppinen, Julia; Niittynen, Pekka; Happonen, Konsta; le Roux, Peter C.; Aalto, Juha; Hjort, Jan; Maliniemi, Tuija; Karjalainen, Olli; Rautakoski, Helena; Luoto, Miska (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Aim Geomorphological processes profoundly affect plant establishment and distributions, but their influence on functional traits is insufficiently understood. Here, we unveil trait–geomorphology relationships in Arctic ...

      Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ...
    • A methodological guide to observe local-scale geodiversity for biodiversity research and management 

      Hjort, Jan; Tukiainen, Helena; Salminen, Henriikka; Kemppinen, Julia; Kiilunen, Petteri; Snåre, Henna; Alahuhta, Janne; Maliniemi, Tuija (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Current global environmental change calls for comprehensive and complementing approaches for biodiversity conservation. According to recent research, consideration of the diversity of Earth's abiotic features (i.e. ...
