Climate adaptation of forest biodiversity

In this project we will identify regugia for retreating cold-favoured species in boreal forests.

Water use and biodiversity in Ethiopia

In this interdisciplinary project we study synergies and trade-offs between water use, water quality/quantity and biodiversity across watersheds with different land-use composition. Financed by VR.

Effects of drought on understory plants

Using both observational and experimental studies, in this PhD project we investigate how extreme weather events (in particular droughts) affect forest biodiversity.

Financed by Formas.

Distribution of broadleaved trees

Here we aim to understand the response of broadleaved tree species distribution in relation to climate change. Have species already started to expand their latitudinal distribution northward? What is the gap between the realized and potential distribution?

Financed by Carl Trygger's foundation.

Effects of UV radiation and drougt on Sphagnum spore vitality

In this project we want to assess how Sphagnum spores that disperse over long distances are affected by drought and UV stress.
