TLDR
In this paper, remote sensing data indicate that contemporary climate warming has already resulted in increased productivity and increased productivity in the tundra biome (Tundra Tundra Bi biome).Abstract:
Temperature is increasing at unprecedented rates across most of the tundra biome(1). Remote-sensing data indicate that contemporary climate warming has already resulted in increased productivity ov ...read more

Community-level functional traits of alpine vascular plants, bryophytes, and lichens after long-term experimental warming1
Kristel van Zuijlen,Kari Klanderud,Oda Sofie Dahle,Åshild Hasvik,Maria Skar Knutsen,Siri Lie Olsen,Snorre Sundsbø,Johan Asplund +7 more
TL;DR: Community-level traits of vascular plants, lichens, and bryophytes in an alpine Dryas octopetala L. heath in Finse, Norway, after nearly two decades of experimental warming were measured to highlight the importance of studying traits of different primary producer groups simultaneously, as they may respond differently to the same environmental changes.

Vegetation responses to 26 years of warming at Latnjajaure Field Station, northern Sweden1
Ruud Scharn,Cole G. Brachmann,Aurora Patchett,Heather Reese,Anne D. Bjorkman,Juha M. Alatalo,Robert G. Björk,Annika K. Jägerbrand,Ulf Molau,Mats P. Björkman +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, climate change is rapidly warming high latitude and high elevation regions influencing plant community composition, and changes in vegetation composition have motivated the coordination of ecological management in high elevation and high latitude regions.

Arctic Resilience: No Evidence of Vegetation Change in Response to Grazing and Climate Changes in South Greenland
Christian Damgaard,Katrine Raundrup,Peter Aastrup,Peter L. Langen,Jon Feilberg,Jacob Nabe-Nielsen +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a large-scale, long-term study of the effects of sheep grazing and climate on the relative dominance of woody plants, graminoids, and forbs is presented.

Annual air temperature variability and biotic interactions explain tundra shrub species abundance
Jonathan von Oppen,Signe Normand,Anne D. Bjorkman,Anne Blach-Overgaard,Jakob J. Assmann,Mads C. Forchhammer,Mads C. Forchhammer,Maya Guéguen,Jacob Nabe-Nielsen +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used extensive vegetation surveys and a trait-based approach to answer the following questions: which abiotic and biotic factors explain abundance of shrub species and functional groups in the Arctic tundra, and can we interpret these relationships using plant traits related to resource acquisition?
Journal ArticleDOI
Warm-season net CO2 uptake outweighs cold-season emissions over Alaskan North Slope tundra under current and RCP8.5 climate
TL;DR: Tao et al. as discussed by the authors demonstrated that an improved version of the energy exascale Earth system model (E3SM) land model (ELMv1-ECA) captures the large amount of cold-season CO2 emissions over Alaskan Arctic tundra as reported by two independent, observationally-constrained datasets.

Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing
Yoav Benjamini,Yosef Hochberg +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach to problems of multiple significance testing is presented, which calls for controlling the expected proportion of falsely rejected hypotheses -the false discovery rate, which is equivalent to the FWER when all hypotheses are true but is smaller otherwise.

Rapid Range Shifts of Species Associated with High Levels of Climate Warming
TL;DR: A meta-analysis shows that species are shifting their distributions in response to climate change at an accelerating rate, and that the range shift of each species depends on multiple internal species traits and external drivers of change.
