    Cladonia lichens on extensive green roofs: evapotranspiration, substrate temperature, and albedo 
     Heim, Amy; Lundholm, Jeremy T. (Jeremy Todd), 1970- (F1000Research, 2013-12-16)
    Green roofs are constructed ecosystems that provide ecosystem services in urban environments. Shallow substrate green roofs subject the vegetation layer to desiccation and other environmental extremes, so researchers have ...

    The ecology and evolution of constructed ecosystems as green infrastructure 
    Lundholm, Jeremy T. (Jeremy Todd), 1970- (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-09-08)
    Green infrastructure consists of ecosystems that provide valuable services to urban areas. Constructed ecosystems, including green roofs, bioretention systems, constructed wetlands and bioreactors are artificial, custom-built ...

    Leaf and life history traits predict plant growth in a green roof ecosystem 
    Lundholm, Jeremy T. (Jeremy Todd), 1970-; Heim, Amy; Tran, Stephanie; Smith, Tyler (Public Library of Science, 2014-06-30)
    Green roof ecosystems are constructed to provide services such as stormwater retention and urban temperature reductions. Green roofs with shallow growing media represent stressful conditions for plant survival, thus plants ...

    Plant species and functional group combinations affect green roof ecosystem functions 
    Lundholm, Jeremy T. (Jeremy Todd), 1970-; MacIvor, J. Scott; MacDougall, Zachary; Ranalli, Melissa (Public Library of Science, 2010-03)
    Background: Green roofs perform ecosystem services such as summer roof temperature reduction and stormwater capture that directly contribute to lower building energy use and potential economic savings. These services are ...
