Pteridophyte species richness in the central Himalaya is limited by cold climate extremes at high elevations and rainfall seasonality at low elevations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)There is a consensus that climate factors strongly influence species richness along elevation gradients, but which factors are crucial and how they operate are still elusive. Here, we assess the relative importance of ... -
“Show me how to use a microscope” – The development and evaluation of certification as direct assessment of practical lab skills
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Practical lab skills are rarely directly assessed. To improve constructive alignment between the described learning outcomes of practical skills and assessment, we developed and tested a certification procedure for microscopy ... -
Taking practical learning in STEM education home: Examples from do‐it‐yourself experiments in plant biology
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Practical teaching can give authentic learning experiences and teach valuable skills for undergraduate students in the STEM disciplines. One of the main ways of giving students such experiences, laboratory teaching, is met ... -
Temporal and structural genetic variation in reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) associated with the pastoral transition in Northwestern Siberia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Just as the domestication of livestock is often cited as a key element in the Neolithic transition to settled, the emergence of large‐scaled reindeer husbandry was a fundamental social transformation for the indigenous ... -
A test of local adaptation to drought in germination and seedling traits in populations of two alpine forbs across a 2000 mm/year precipitation gradient
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Seed regeneration is a critical stage in the life histories of plants, affecting species' abilities to maintain local populations, evolve, and disperse to new sites. In this study, we test for local adaptations to drought ... -
Thermal transgenerational effects remain after two generations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Transgenerational plasticity (TGP) is increasingly recognized as a mechanism by which organisms can respond to environments that change across generations. Although recent empirical and theoretical studies have explored ... -
Think globally, measure locally: The MIREN standardized protocol for monitoring plant species distributions along elevation gradients
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Climate change and other global change drivers threaten plant diversity in mountains worldwide. A widely documented response to such environmental modifications is for plant species to change their elevational ranges. Range ... -
Time series covering up to four decades reveals major changes and drivers of marine growth and proportion of repeat spawners in an Atlantic salmon population
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Wild Atlantic salmon populations have declined in many regions and are affected by diverse natural and anthropogenic factors. To facilitate management guidelines, precise knowledge of mechanisms driving population changes ...
