Response of British lichens to climate change scenarios: Trends and uncertainties in the projected impact for contrasting biogeographic groups (2007, unknown): “…to environmental change has been used as an effective tool for the bioindication of pollutants (Hawksworth and Rose, 1970; Van Herk et al., 2003) and in resource management (Coppins and Coppins, 2002), and we suggest lichens may also provide an effective monitoring system for climate impacts.”
A flexible multi-scale approach for standardised recording of plant species richness patterns (2009, background): “…in bioindication for assessing site conditions (Ellenberg et al., 1991), environmental pollution (Kirschbaum and Wirth, 1997; Frahm, 1998), or land-use history (Coppins and Coppins, 2002; Friedel et al., 2006), and for discriminating vegetation types (Dengler, 2003; Berg and Dengler, 2005).”
Contrasting functional traits maintain lichen epiphyte diversity in response to climate and autogenic succession (2006, background): “…beyond which certain species become limited to old-growth habitats supports the careful recognition of discrete biogeographical zones, i.e. a different East of Scotland index of ecological continuity and a contrasting West of Scotland index of ecological continuity (Coppins & Coppins, 2002).”
