Breeding system, insect flower visitation, and floral traits of two alpine cerastium species in Norway
Totland, Ørjan; Schulte-Herbriiggen, Björn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)The pollination and reproductive ecology of Saxifraga stellaris was investigated in alpine southwest Norway. A breeding system analysis, with performance of controlled crosses, revealed that S. stellaris is self-compatible ... -
Effects of temperature and natural disturbance on growth, reproduction, and population density in the alpine annual hemiparasite euphrasia frigida
Nyléhn, Jorun; Totland, Ørjan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)The effects of temperature and "natural disturbance" on growth, seed production, and population density in the facultative hemiparasitic annual Euphrasia frigida (Scrophulariaceae) were examined in the middle alpine zone ... -
Enhancing pollination is more effective than increased conventional agriculture inputs for improving watermelon yields
Sawe, Thomas; Eldegard, Katrine; Totland, Ørjan; Macrice, Samora; Nielsen, Anders (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Agricultural practices to improve yields in small‐scale farms in Africa usually focus on improving growing conditions for the crops by applying fertilizers, irrigation, and/or pesticides. This may, however, have limited ... -
Experimental warming differentially affects vegetative and reproductive phenology of tundra plants
Collins, Courtney G.; Elmendorf, Sarah C.; Hollister, Robert D.; Henry, Greg H. R.; Clark, Karin; Bjorkman, Anne D.; Myers-Smith, Isla H.; Prevéy, Janet S.; Ashton, Isabel W.; Assmann, Jakob J.; Alatalo, Juha M.; Carbognani, Michele; Chisholm, Chelsea L.; Cooper, Elisabeth J.; Forrester, Chiara; Jónsdóttir, Ingibjörg Svala; Klanderud, Kari; Kopp, Christopher W.; Livensperger, Carolyn; Mauritz, Marguerite; May, Jeremy L.; Molau, Ulf; Oberbauer, Steven F.; Ogburn, Emily; Panchen, Zoe A.; Petraglia, Alessandro; Post, Eric; Rixen, Christian; Rodenhizer, Heidi; Schuur, Edward A.G.; Semenchuk, Philipp; Smith, Jane G.; Steltzer, Heidi; Totland, Ørjan; Walker, Marilyn D.; Welker, Jeffrey M.; Suding, Katharine N. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Rapid climate warming is altering Arctic and alpine tundra ecosystem structure and function, including shifts in plant phenology. While the advancement of green up and flowering are well-documented, it remains unclear ... -
Forest fragmentation modifes the composition of bumblebee communities and modulates their trophic and competitive interactions for pollination
Gómez-Martínez, Carmelo; Aase, Anne Lene Thorsdatter Orvedal; Totland, Ørjan; Rodríguez-Pérez, Javier; Birkemoe, Tone; Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne; Lázaro, Amparo (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Understanding the effects of landscape fragmentation on global bumblebee declines requires going beyond estimates of abundance and richness and evaluating changes in community composition and trophic and competitive ... -
Ontogenetic niche shifts in a locally endangered tree species (Olea europaea subsp. cuspidata) in a disturbed forest in Northern Ethiopia: Implications for conservation
Wegasie, Mekdes Ourge; Klanderud, Kari; Totland, Ørjan; Eldegard, Katrine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Understanding the responses of different ontogenetic stages to environmental and human disturbance factors is essential for developing efficient conservation strategies for endangered plant species. We examined how three ... -
Responses of tundra plants to experimental warming : meta-analysis of the international tundra experiment
Arft, A. M.; Walker, M. D.; Gurevitch, J.; Alatalo, J. M.; Bret-Harte, M. S.; Dale, M.; Diemer, M.; Gugerli, F.; Henry, G. H. R.; Jones, M. H.; Hollister, R. D.; Jónsdóttir, I.

J.; Webber, P. J.; Welker, J. M.; Wookey, P. A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)The International Tundra Experiment (ITEX) is a collaborative, multisite experiment using a common temperature manipulation to examine variability in species response across climatic and geographic gradients of tundra ... -
Unfenced Borders Cause Differences in Vegetation and Fauna Between Protected and Unprotected Areas in a Tropical Savanna
Nyamukuru, Antonia; Grytnes, John-Arvid; Tabuti, John Robert Stephen; Totland, Ørjan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09-04)Protected areas generally occur within a matrix of intensively human-modified landscapes. As a way to maintain the biodiversity in these areas, enclosure by fencing is often preferred. This strategy, however, is costly and ... -
Willow canopies and plant community structure along an alpine environmental gradient
Totland, Ørjan; Grytnes, John-Arvid; Heegaard, Einar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005)We examined the impact of Salix lapponum canopies on plantcommunity structure in five sites along a climatic gradient in aglacier foreland in alpine south Norway. Species richness is lowerinside canopies compared to outside ... -
Wind to insect pollination ratios and floral traits in five alpine Salix species
Totland, Ørjan; Peeters, Liza (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 1999)This study examines the ratio of wind to insect pollination of five alpine-arctic Salix species and possible correlations between plant traits and this ratio. The field work was done in an alpine area in southwest Norway, ...
