Analysing the distribution of strictly protected areas toward the EU2030 target
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Protecting global biodiversity is one of the most urgent tasks for the coming decades. Area-based conservation is a pillar for preserving ecosystems and species. Strictly protected areas specifically preserve biodiversity ... -
Temporal changes in boreal vegetation under 70 years of conservation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Biodiversity conservation through protected areas (PAs) is often based on the idea that biodiversity is relatively static. This assumption is increasingly being challenged as species and communities shift their distributions ... -
Traditional prescribed burning of coastal heathland provides niches for xerophilous and sun‑loving beetles
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In Western Norway, farmers have traditionally used fire as a management tool in coastal heathlands to enhance the fodder quality for livestock. Rotational prescribed burning increases landscape heterogeneity by creating a ... -
Type of broadleaf forest matters most for ptyctimous mite communities (Acari, Oribatida) in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We studied ptyctimous moss mites, which are characteristic of forest habitats, in Norwegian broadleaf forests considered as biodiversity hotspot areas in Fennoscandia. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of different ... -
Using Red List species in designating protection status to forest areas: a case study on the problem of spatio-temporal dynamics
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Red-listed species are often used as target species in selection of sites for conservation. However, limitations to their use have been pointed out, and here we address the problem of expected high spatio-temporal dynamics ...
