The Mussels That Came in From the Cold: Long-Term Effects of the Population Collapse in the 1960s May Explain Low Abundances of Boreal Mussels in the Subarctic Despite the Warming. [PDF]
Ecol EvolArctic warming is predicted to have a positive effect on boreal species. To test this hypothesis, we gathered and analyzed two datasets on blue mussels Mytilus from the Murman Coast of the Barents Sea. The first dataset contained data on the age structure of a mussel population monitored from 2001 to 2020, while the second dataset contained data on ...

Determinants of Soil Microarthropod Community Biodiversity in the Svalbard High Arctic: Locality or Vegetation Community? [PDF]
Ecol EvolArctic ecosystems like Svalbard are rapidly changing, yet soil microarthropods remain difficult to monitor due to limited baseline data and demanding field and identification work. Using 172 soil samples from 33 localities, we tested whether vegetation maps could serve as proxies for soil microarthropod communities.
