A new climate era in the sub-Arctic: Accelerating climate changes and multiple impacts

TL;DR: Callaghan et al. as discussed by the authors showed that the Swedish sub-Arctic has reached a level at which statistical analysis shows for the first time that current warming has exceeded that in the late 1930' s and early 1940' s, and has significantly crossed the 0 degrees C mean annual temperature threshold which causes many cryospheric and ecological impacts.
Journal ArticleDOI

A century of tree line changes in sub-Arctic Sweden shows local and regional variability and only a minor influence of 20th century climate warming

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used repeat photography, dendrochronological analysis, field observations along elevational transects and historical documents to study tree line dynamics in a sub-Arctic model area at different temporal and spatial scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tree and Shrub Expansion Over the Past 34 Years at the Tree-Line Near Abisko, Sweden

TL;DR: Although this study was unable to identify the causes for the change in shrubs and small trees, they are consistent with anticipated changes due to climate change and reduced herbivory.
