Accessible and harmonised datasetsOne of the major tasks of biogeography is to investigate the link between the physical environment and the distribution of species / habitats / biomes. This requires the researcher to handle data representing the physical environment, for example climate or land use data. These datasets are generated by different research groups, stored at different repositories a

The dynamic global vegetation model LPJ-GUESS consists of processes simulated on a daily or annual time step (Smith et al., 2001). For example, photosynthesis is simulated as a daily process and carbon allocation between plant compartments as an annual process. However, to be able to study grass growth more in depth there was a need for daily carbon allocation. The changes made it possible to stud

Between 30-50 % of northern peatlands occur in permafrost areas and global warming can radically alter their hydrology.

Disaster and Natural Resource Management Extreme climatic events and land managementVariations in temperature and rainfall due to climate change create increased exposure to extreme climatic events causing disasters such as severe flooding, landslides, and erosion.

One cause is related to climate change, but the major reasons are anthropogenic and have to do with for example non-optimal land use, insufficient flood proofing of buildings and mismatching insurance schemes. In order to deal with flooding in a sustainable way, the strategy has
