Intraspecific Functional Trait Responses to Experimental Warming Vary With Precipitation and Growth Form We assessed the intraspecific functional trait response of 17 alpine plant species to experimental warming across a precipitation gradient. Warming consistently increased plant height. In contrast, t...

How do alpine plants respond to warming?Intraspecific trait shifts depend on precipitation and growth form, with stronger responses in forbs than graminoids.

Only a few days left to apply to this exciting PhD position on modeling Arctic-boreal vegetation and the impacts from more variable winter weather!

🌸Plant diversity dynamics over space and time in a warming Arctic 🌸

Our new study @nature.com analysed plant diversity change in >2000 tundra plots over 4 decades. We found that plants changed unevenly, mostly driven by warming and biotic interactions.

Hey hey, looks who's here!
If you're interested in the diverse research we're up to in the Between the Fjords group, go check us out 🌱🏔

Hi there! I'm a researcher at the University of Bergen, Norway who is interested in understanding how plants are responding to changing global change drivers. Dabbling in trait ecology, thermal tolerance, invasives, adaptive capacity, and using evidence synthesis approaches. 🌱🏔️
