    • Environmental conditions alter successional trajectories on an ephemeral resource: a field experiment with beetles in dead wood 

      Vindstad, Ole Petter Laksforsmo; Birkemoe, Tone; Ims, Rolf Anker; Sverdrup-Thygeson, Anne (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-07)
      Successional processes can be observed for many organisms and resources, but most studies of succession have focused on plants. A general framework has been proposed, advocating that successional patterns in species turnover are predominantly driven by competition, dispersal or abiotic limitation, and that the patterning of species accumulation over time gives clues to which process is most influential ...

      Climatic impacts are especially pronounced in the Arctic, which as a region is warming twice as fast as the rest of the globe. Here, we investigate how mean climatic conditions and rates of climatic change impact parasitoid insect communities in 16 localities across the Arctic. We focus on parasitoids in a widespread habitat, Dryas heathlands, and describe parasitoid community composition in terms ...
