Circular 32 [PDF]

, 1979
Management objectives of some revegetation plantings encourage the use of native species. Where reinstatement of a native flora is desired, the inclusion of suitable native materials can hasten the process.

Assessing the Vulnerability of an Inuit Archaeological Site in a Changing Periglacial Environment: A Novel Multimethod Geophysical Approach in Arctic Geoarchaeology

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With northern regions warming at twice the global rate, assessing the state of archaeological sites in these areas is critically important. In this study, we used a multimethod geophysical approach (ERT, GPR, and EMI) to characterize the current geocryological conditions of an Inuit archaeological site on South Aulatsivik Island (Labrador ...

Arctic shrubification mediates the impacts of warming climate on changes to tundra vegetation

Environmental Research Letters, 2016
Climate change has been observed to expand distributions of woody plants in many areas of arctic and alpine environments—a phenomenon called shrubification.

Stratigraphic evidence for modern‐like glacier extents in south‐central Alaska within the last glacial period (MIS 3)

Boreas, EarlyView.
The last (Wisconsinan) glacial period was punctuated in North America by two glacial maxima, known as the Early and Late Wisconsinan glaciations. In Alaska, these maxima and their subsequent retreats have been the object of dating efforts to reconstruct local climatic events and compare them to global trends.

Evolution of postglacial vegetation in the Western Laptev Sea region (Siberian Arctic) [PDF]

, 2007
On the basis of a detailed study of the pollen-spore spectra and a detailed radiocarbon chronology of a sediment core obtained from the western outer Laptev Sea shelf, the long-term and high-resolution changes of vegetation in the northwestern Laptev Sea

What controls forest litter decomposition? A coordinated distributed teabag experiment across ten mountains

Ecography, EarlyView.
Litter decomposition in mountainous forest ecosystems is an essential process that affects carbon and nutrient cycling. However, the contribution of litter decomposition to terrestrial ecosystems is difficult to estimate accurately because of the limited comparability of different studies and limited data on local microclimatic and non‐climatic factors.

The annual, temporal and spatial pattern of Setaria tundra outbreaks in Finnish reindeer: a mechanistic transmission model approach

Parasites & Vectors, 2018
Background In northern Finland (Lapland), reindeer are reared as semi-domesticated animals. The region has a short summer season of 2–3 months, yet reindeer are infected with the mosquito-borne filarioid parasite Setaria tundra.

Historic disturbance events overruled climatic factors as drivers of ruderal species distributions in the Scandinavian mountains

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The contemporary interaction of climate and disturbance drives vegetation composition and species distribution shifts, making their respective roles difficult to disentangle. This study describes the long‐term ruderal plant species distributions along the ‘Rallarvägen' in Abisko, subarctic Sweden.
