Transferability of biotic interactions: temporal consistency of arctic plant-rodent relationships is poor
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-17)
Variability in biotic interaction strength is an integral part of food web functioning.
However, the consequences of the spatial and temporal variability of biotic interactions
are poorly known, in particular for predicting species abundance and distribution.
The amplitude of rodent population cycles (i.e., peak-phase abundances) has
been hypothesized to be determined by vegetation properties ...
Definition of sampling units begets conclusions in ecology: The case of habitats for plant communities
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-03-05)
In ecology, expert knowledge on habitat characteristics is often used to define sampling
units such as study sites. Ecologists are especially prone to such approaches
when prior sampling frames are not accessible. Here we ask to what extent can
different approaches to the definition of sampling units influence the conclusions
that are drawn from an ecological study? We do this by comparing a ...
