Photosynthesis of lichens from lichen-dominated communities in the alpine/nival belt of the Alps – II: Laboratory and field measurements of CO₂ exchange and water relations
Reiter, Robert; Höftberger, Margit; Green, T.G. Allan; Türk, Roman (Elsevier, 2008)CO₂ exchange and water relations of selected lichen species were investigated in the field and also in the laboratory, at a height of 3106 m above sea level in the Austrian Alps, during the short snowless summer period ... -
Photosynthetic responses of three common mosses from continental Antarctica
Pannewitz, Stefan; Green, T.G. Allan; Maysek, Kadmiel; Schlensog, Mark; Seppelt, Rodney D.; Sancho, Leopoldo G.; Türk, Roman; Schroeter, Burkhard (Cambridge University Press, 2005)Predicting the effects of climate change on Antarctic terrestrial vegetation requires a better knowledge of the ecophysiology of common moss species. In this paper we provide a comprehensive matrix for photosynthesis and ... -
Quantified vegetation change over 42 years at Cape Hallett, East Antarctica
Brabyn, Lars; Beard, Catherine; Seppelt, Rodney D.; Rudolph, E.D.; Türk, Roman; Green, T.G. Allan (Cambridge University Press, 2006)This paper reports on the remapping of a carefully documented vegetation plot at Cape Hallett (72°19′S 170°16′E) to provide an assessment of the rates of vegetation change over decadal time scales. E.D. Rudolph, in 1962, ... -
An unusual growth form of Cladonia furcata: The trampling-resistant primary thallus colonizing a paved pathway
Lange, Otto L.; Green, T.G. Allan; Türk, Roman (1998)Lichens are well known to be susceptible to damage by trampling. Fruticose species, with their highly branched structure, are particularly sensitive and Bayfield et al. (1981) described substantial damage to Cladonia ...
