• Deeper snow alters soil nutrient availability and leaf nutrient status in high Arctic tundra 

      Semenchuk, Philipp; Elberling, Bo; Amtorp, Cecilie; Winkler, Judith; Rumpf, Sabine Bettina; Michelsen, Anders; Cooper, Elisabeth J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2015-02-24)
      Nitrogen (N) mineralization, nutrient availability, and plant growth in the Arctic are often restricted by low temperatures. Predicted increases of cold-season temperatures may be important for plant nutrient availability and growth, given that N mineralization is also taking place during the cold season. Changing nutrient availability may be reflected in plant N and chlorophyll content and lead to ...
    • High Arctic plant phenology is determined by snowmelt patterns but duration of phenological periods is fixed: an example of periodicity 

      Semenchuk, Philipp; Gillespie, Mark; Rumpf, Sabine Bettina; Baggesen, Nanna Schrøder; Cooper, Elisabeth J. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-11-29)
      The duration of specific periods within a plant’s life cycle are critical for plant growth and performance. In the High Arctic, the start of many of these phenological periods is determined by snowmelt date, which may change in a changing climate. It has been suggested that the end of these periods during late-season are triggered by external cues, such as day length, light quality or temperature, ...

    • Prevention of microbial species introductions to the arctic: The efficacy of footwear disinfection measures on cruise ships 

      Rumpf, Sabine Bettina; Alsos, Inger Greve; Ware, Christopher (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-03-06)
      Biosecurity measures are commonly used to prevent the introduction of non-native species to natural environments globally, yet the efficacy of practices is rarely tested under operational conditions. A voluntary biosecurity measure was trialled in the Norwegian high Arctic following concern that non-native species might be transferred to the region on the footwear of travellers. Passengers aboard ...

      <p><i>Motivation</i>: The Tundra Trait Team (TTT) database includes field‐based measurements of key traits related to plant form and function at multiple sites across the tundra biome. This dataset can be used to address theoretical questions about plant strategy and trade‐offs, trait–environment relationships and environmental filtering, and trait variation across spatial scales, to validate satellite ...
