Plant community responses to experimental warming across the tundra biome

TL;DR: Warming increased height and cover of deciduous shrubs and graminoids, decreased cover of mosses and lichens, and decreased species diversity and evenness, which predict that warming will cause a decline in biodiversity across a wide variety of tundra, at least in the short term.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global assessment of experimental climate warming on tundra vegetation: heterogeneity over space and time.

Sarah C. Elmendorf, +46 more
- 01 Feb 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a synthesis of 61 experimental warming studies, of up to 20 years duration, in tundra sites worldwide, was used to understand the sensitivity of tundras vegetation to climate warming and to forecast future biodiversity and vegetation feedbacks to climate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cold adaptation in Arctic and Antarctic fungi

TL;DR: Growth and activity at low temperatures and possible physiological and ecological mechanisms underlying survival of fungi isolated from the cold Arctic and Antarctic are reviewed andMelanin in dark septate hyphae, which predominate in polar soils, could protect hyphAE from extreme temperatures and play a significant role in their persistence from year to year.
