Shrub expansion in tundra ecosystems: dynamics, impacts and research priorities

TL;DR: This article used repeat photography, long-term ecological monitoring and dendrochronology to document shrub expansion in arctic, high-latitude and alpine tundra.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant functional trait change across a warming tundra biome

Anne D. Bjorkman, +146 more
- 04 Oct 2018 - 
TL;DR: Biome-wide relationships between temperature, moisture and seven key plant functional traits across the tundra and over time show that community height increased with warming across all sites, whereas other traits lagged behind predicted rates of change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Soil warming increases plant species richness but decreases germination from the alpine soil seed bank.

TL;DR: Contrary to expectations, soil warming lead to reduced overall germination from the soil seed bank, however, germination response to soil temperature was species specific such that total species richness actually increased by nine with soil warming.
Journal ArticleDOI

Warming shortens flowering seasons of tundra plant communities

Janet S. Prevéy, +39 more
TL;DR: Community-level flowering has been contracting in response to recent warming, in contrast to findings from lower latitudes, suggesting that community-level phenological responses to warming can vary greatly between biomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using plant functional traits to explain community composition across a strong environmental filter in Australian alpine snowpatches

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used three continuous plant functional traits (leaf area, plant height, seed mass) to document current patterns of community assembly and predict plant community responses to future environmental filters in alpine snowpatch vegetation.
