Lichen Community | Carpet Tile Collection - Mohawk Group
Meet Lichen Community, designed in collaboration with McLennan Design, a modular carpet collection that connects us to a more restorative, climate positive future. This fresh take on the original Lichen collection offers an additional bark texture to join the popular stone one, serving as ground textures for the multi-hued lichens that grow ...
Lichen - Wikipedia
A tree covered with leafy foliose lichens and shrubby fruticose lichens. Common lichen growth forms. Letharia vulpina, wolf lichen, grows like a multiple-branched tuft or leafless mini-shrub, so it has a fruticose growth form. Flavoparmelia caperata has leaf-like structures, so it is foliose.

2021年1月29日 — The ecosystem is an open forest with a characteristic continuous lichen ground cover (Girard et al., 2017) (Fig. 1A). Lichens are an important food source for reindeer (Rangifer tarandus L.) and caribou (R. tarandus caribou) in winter, accounting for 75% of their diet (Gauthier et al., 1989; Svihus and Holand, 2000).

Lichens are most noticeable on the tundra, where lichens, mosses, and liverworts constitute the majority of ground cover. This cover helps to insulate the ground, and may provide forage for grazing animals.

2015年1月1日 — Terricolous mat-forming lichens of the genera Cladonia (Cladina), Cetraria, Stereocaulon and Alectoria form extensive ground cover in subarctic lichen woodland, forest tundra and tundra heathlands, where they represent the principal food source for reindeer and caribou during winter time (Crittenden 2000).
As portrayed schematically in the diagrams to the right, we expected to observe the following associations: 1) lichen dominance where overall exposure is high but moisture and nutrients are low;...
