Under and above the snow: Drivers of lichen diversity in subarctic birch forests
Lichens play a vital role in terrestrial and Arctic ecosystems. The subarctic mountain birch forests are among the most threatened habitat types in Fennoscandia and the lichens occupying them are a threatened species group. Snow has an impact on subar
