I am a forest ecologist and conservation scientist with a special interest in temperate deciduous forest and its biodiversity. I engage in two main lines of research:
1) As a trained mycologist, I study aspects of biodiversity and conservation of fungi (incl. lichenized) in forests. At the most fundamental level, we cannot conclude on the best way to conserve the biodiversity or monitor changes without knowing the species. Knowledge on species identification and taxonomy of hyper-diverse taxa are essential, but highly threatened and decreasing skills worldwide. My own taxonomic expertise is within pyrenomycetoid ascomycetes, especially those associated with living trees and dead wood, and i have described several species new to science from Norway. There is a strong tendency of taxonomic bias within conservation, meaning that nearly all interest is focused on a few taxa such as large animals and vascular plants, while hyper-diverse taxa such as fungi and insects are often neglected. I therefore engage in both both basic exploration of biodiversity within hyper-diverse taxa, and study the effects of habitat loss, management et c on this biodiversity. This interest started already in my thesis (presented in 2000), where I studied the poorly known dispersal ecology of wood-living fungi in relation to conservation. I also use my expert knowledge to perform red list assessments of disfavoured ascomycete species, and black list assessments for species brought to Norway by man.
2) My second main research area is the restoration of temperate deciduous forest, the worlds' most degraged biome. Since 2000, I have been co-leader of the Swedish Oak project, a long-term experimental research project aiming to improve our understanding of how oak-rich mixed forests function and can be managed for (primarily) conservation purposes and biological diversity. Many oak-rich mixed forests, and almost all our "noble" (hardwood) broadleaved forests developed from an older, more open, traditional agricultural landscape, where several special species thrived but are now declining. Active management measures to create more open forests are hence motivated, but need to be evaluated for many taxa, and we study the effects of partial (restoration) cutting in forest with relatively old oaks on biodiversity. In another one of my projects, TransForest, we experimentally evaluate the biodiversity effects of restoration cutting of spruce in more recent mixed forests and focus on insects, plants and fungi.
Starting in 2023, I lead a new large trans-sectorial research project, SynForest, which aims to develop new sustainable uses of forests and wood. Climate risks and their associated costs in spruce-dominated forestry motivate an increased focus on temperate broad-leaf (TBL) trees, and higher demand for high-quality timber from, and planting of, these trees can assist their dispersal and climate tracking. At the same time, a higher share of TBL trees has important co-benefits for biodiversity. By involving important private and public stakeholders in a dedicated collaborative effort we focus on four key areas to enable the described transition: 1) creating new products and value chains based on Norwegian oak, 2) overcoming the practical challenges of converting (storm-damaged) spruce forest to oak forest considering the unsustainably high browsing pressures, 3) developing the potential for sustainable high-quality oak timber production by management of recent mixed forests with spruce, and 4) analysing the opportunities for a transition to TBL production ensuing from national and international policy and regulations. The project is a collaboration between forestry partners and small enterprises from southern Norway, and researchers in the fields of wood technology, forestry, ecology, environmental economics, and social sciences.

Jon Hamner Magerøy
Jeg har stor erfaring med forskning på og overvåking av ferskvannsmuslinger i Norge, Canada og USA. Forskningstemaene inkluderer bl.a. habitatkrav, genetikk, menneskelig påvirkning og økosystemtjenester. I forbindelse med dette arbeidet har jeg også jobbet med bekreftede og potensielle vertsfisk for larvene til disse muslingene. Dermed har jeg fått erfaring med diverse arter ferskvannsfisk, både gjennom eksperimenter og feltarbeid. I doktorgraden forsket jeg på evolusjonære teorier som gjelder parasitter som kastrerer deres verter. Spesifikt jobbet jeg med en bakterie som kastrerer vannlopper (daphnier).
I forbindelse med arbeidet med ferskvannsmuslinger er jeg også medlem av IUCNs spesialistgruppe for bøtdyr (mollusker) (
Mollusc Specialist Group), medlem av admnistrasjonsomiteen for forskningsnettverket CONFREMUS (
confremus.eu), som er et COST-nettverk for ferskvannsmuslinger i Europa, og medlem av "the Freshwater Mollusk Conservation Society" (
FMCS).

Wide experience working at the science-policy interface, from both the science and policy side and from national to global levels, and development and use of scientific knowledge, tools and methodologies in the conservation and management of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Working with applied and policy-relevant knowledge as well as promoting international collaboration. Holds the role as member of IPBES Task Force on Policy Tools and Methodologies and have previously held the role as Norway's national focal point for both CBD SBSTTA and UNCCD CST. Involved in the IPBES process since before its establishment, as a negotiator on behalf of the Norwegian Government. Now has a role as adviser to the Norwegian delegation to IPBES. Have been Norway's representative to the governing bodies of UN Environment and UN-Habitat in Nairobi, through the position as counsellor at the Royal Norwegian Embassy. At present working with facilitating and promoting international collaboration in applied environmental research as well as narrowing the gap between science and policy both in Norway and globally. Guest lecturer at both NTNU and NMBU.
