Climate change
Climate is changing rapidly, especially in the Northern Regions.
We study how these changes affect different species and their interactions in the ecosystem, including how ongoing changes impact productivity, establishment of non-native species and their impacts, food-web structure, and harvestable resources. We also investigate how ecosystems can be managed to maximize their climate-change mitigation potential. As climate change can have far-reaching consequences and can interact with other changes in the ecosystem, this dimension is integrated into many of our projects on ecosystem effects from human activities.
