A comparative study of macroinvertebrate biodiversity in highway stormwater ponds and natural ponds (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)The use of stormwater ponds along the highways is shown to be an effective alternative to conventional systems, which are usually sewers. These ponds have the potential to combine their primary function of pollution and ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Aim: Although the effects of climate on species richness are known, regional pro‐ cesses may lead to different species richness–climate relationships across continents resulting in species richness anomalies, especially ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Background Understanding the phylogenetic relationships among species is one of the main goals of systematic biology. Simultaneously, credible phylogenetic hypotheses are often the first requirement for ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2021)Resolution of relationships at lower taxonomic levels is crucial for answering many evolutionary questions, and as such, sufficiently varied species representation is vital. This latter goal is not always achievable with ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)During the Late Ordovician, large explosive volcanic eruptions deposited worldwide K-bentonites, including the Millbrig and Deicke K-bentonites in North America and the Kinnekulle K-bentonite in Scandinavia. We have studied ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Research on the Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB) along the northern margins of Pangaea (exposed today in the Arctic region) has been heavily reliant on field observations, where data resolution was consequently determined ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)Cryptoclidids are a major clade of plesiosauromorph plesiosaurians best known from the Middle—Late Jurassic, but little is known regarding their turnover into the Early Cretaceous. Of the known cryptoclidid genera, most ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)The Late Jurassic Slottsmøya Member Lagerstätte on Spitsbergen preserves a diverse array of marine reptiles, including four named taxa of ophthalmosaurid ichthyosaurs. One of these, Palvennia hoybergeti, is based on the ...

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2018)A new specimen of Phalarodon from the Middle Triassic Botneheia Formation on Svalbard, although not complete, is well preserved with both cranial and postcranial elements. Uncompressed preservation of the rostrum reveals ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Crop wild relatives (CWR) can provide one solution to future challenges on food security, sustainable agriculture and adaptation to climate change. Diversity found in CWR can be essential for adapting crops to these new ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Phyllopsora is a crustose to squamulose lichen genus inhabiting the bark of trees in moist tropical forests and rainforests. Species identification is generally challenging and is mainly based on ascospore morphology, ...
-

(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2020)The tropical lichen genus Aciculopsora is still very poorly collected. Only eleven collections are known worldwide. We present a molecular phylogenetic tree based on mtSSU and nrITS sequence data from six Aciculopsora ...
-
(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / AcceptedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2019)Although only a relatively small proportion of plant species form ectomycorrhizae with fungi, it is crucial for growth and survival for a number of widespread woody plant species. Few studies have attempted to investigate ...
