• Ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungi respond differently to long-term experimentally increased snow depth in the High Arctic 

      Mundra, Sunil; Halvorsen, Rune; Kauserud, Håvard; Bahram, Mohammad; Tedersoo, Leho; Elberling, Bo; Cooper, Elisabeth J.; Eidesen, Pernille Bronken (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-12)
      Changing climate is expected to alter precipitation patterns in the Arctic, with consequences for subsurface temperature and moisture conditions, community structure, and nutrient mobilization through microbial belowground processes. Here, we address the effect of increased snow depth on the variation in species richness and community structure ...

      1. Several studies have shown the potential of eDNA-based proxies for plant identification, but little is known about their spatial and temporal resolution. This limits its use for plant biodiversity assessments and monitoring of vegetation responses to environmental changes. Here we calibrate the temporal and spatial plant signals detected with soil eDNA surveys by comparing with a standard visual ...
