Fennoscandian Tundra Ecosystems

Part of the book series: Ecological Studies ((ECOLSTUD,volume 17))

Abstract

The present study is part of the Norwegian International Biological Programme (IBP) concerning productivity of tundra ecosystems in alpine regions in central southern Norway. Three different habitats were examined: a wet meadow, a dry meadow and a dry lichen heath, as described by Sonesson et al. (1975), and Solhøy (1972).
