Setre og støler rundt Breheimen/Jotunheimen ble registrert og fotografert i årene 1969–74. Nå 50 år etter oppsøker vi dem på nytt. Brukes de som før? Hva har skjedd med bygninger og arealer?

Rapporten beskriver feltarbeid med fotografering og registrering i seterområder ved sjøen Tesse i Lom i 2020. Arbeidet refererer til et etnologisk registreringsarbeid utført samme sted 50 år tidligere, i 1970. Seterhus og seterbruk betraktes i et 50 års tidsperspektiv, men også i nåtid ved sammenligning med andre seterområder i samme landsdel. Bilder fra 1970 er refotografert i 2020.

Soil nutrient contents and stoichiometric ratios are determinants for soil biogeochemical cycling and functions. Variable rock fragment contents (RFC) may shape the soil nutrient status and availability in mountain ecosystems. We need to better understand how and why soil nutrients and stoichiometry shift across the RFC gradients. To investigate patterns of soil nutrient stoichiometry and underlying mechanisms in rocky soils, we conducted a field experiment involving four RFCs gradients (0%, 25%, 50% and 75%, V/V) and five vegetation treatments (four indigenous species, Artemisia vestita, Bauhinia brachycarpa, Cotinus szechuanensis and Sophora davidii, plus a non-planted treatment). Soil total carbon (C), total nitrogen (N), total phosphorus (P) and their molar ratios were measured. The contents of soil C, N and P, and C:N, C:P and N:P decreased with increasing RFC in all treatments, despite their trends were inconsistent in certain soil layers. The averages of soil N content significantly increased by 13.8% and 14.8% in C. szechuanensis and S. davidii, respectively. A. vestita and B. brachycarpa had higher soil C:N than C. szechuanensis and S. davidii. Soil nutrients and stoichiometry were positively related to soil water content (SWC) and soil capillary porosity, and negatively to bulk density and soil non-capillary porosity in all vegetation treatments, but varying relationships with biomass of plant components. These results demonstrated negative effect of RFC and discrepant effects of the plants on soil nutrients and stoichiometry. Soil structure, SWC and vegetation were the main drivers of variations in soil nutrient stoichiometry. We further concluded that soil nutrient stoichiometry in rocky soils is shaped by two influencing paths; effects of RFC on soil physical properties (SWC and soil structure) and effects of different vegetations. Our findings advance knowledge and mechanisms of soil nutrient stoichiometry in rocky soils and provide theoretical support for improving and restoring nutrient status in stony regions.

Thinning treatments along with the establishment of mixed forest stands have been put forward as possible adaptation strategies to cope with climate change, although the effectiveness of combining these two measures has scarcely been studied and may vary depending on stand conditions and the thinning regime employed. The aim of this study was to better understand the effect of commercial thinning and of the different growth behavior of two coexisting species on their inter- and intra-annual cumulative radial increment patterns. For this purpose, we studied radial increment in a Scots pine-Pyrenean oak (Pinus sylvestris L.-Quercus pyrenaica Willd.) Mediterranean mixed forest in north-west Spain over two climatically contrasting years (2016–2017). The data came from a thinning trial consisting of a randomized latin square design with a control and two commercial thinning treatments from below; one moderate and the other heavy, removing 25% and 50 % of initial basal area, respectively, of both species. The radial increment was analyzed based on bi-weekly readings from band dendrometers installed on 90 oak and pine trees. A non-linear mixed model based on double-Richards curve was fitted to explore the differences between thinning treatments and species response in the intra-annual cumulative radial increment patterns. Inter-annual basal area increments for each species at stand level were quantified by aggregating the tree estimates obtained from the model fitted in the first step. Tree and stand level growth were greater in Scots pine, which also showed a greater growth response to early spring droughts than the Pyrenean oak. Heavy thinning increased radial increment in trees of both species at the expense of decreased total stand basal area. At species level, basal area growth in Scots pine decreased through thinning, whereas for Pyrenean oak, the heavy thinning intensity resulted in the same basal area growth as the control. Thus, heavy thinning induced a trade-off between total stand growth and tree-level response to climatic conditions for Scots pine but with no loss in productivity in the case of the Pyrenean oak. Hence, heavy thinning may be an appropriate measure to attain productive stability of the oak coppice in the studied mixed forest as well as to adapt tree growth to future droughts associated with climate change.
