Status and trends in Arctic vegetation
Open AccessAnne D Bjorkman, Mariana García Criado et al.ARTICLEAMBIO2020Cited by: 5References: 102
Changes in Arctic vegetation can have important implications for trophic interactions and ecosystem functioning leading to climate feedbacks. Plot-based vegetation surveys provide detailed insight into vegetation changes at sites around the Arctic and improve our ability to predict the impacts of environmental change on tundra ecosystems. Here, we review studies of changes in plant community composition and phenology from both long-term monitorin…
Contrasting shrub species respond to early summer temperatures leading to correspondence of shrub growth patterns
Open AccessStef Weijers, Roland Pape et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018
The Arctic-alpine biome is warming rapidly, resulting in a gradual replacement of low statured species by taller woody species in many tundra ecosystems. In northwest North America, the remotely sensed normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), suggests an increase in productivity of the Arctic and alpine tundra and a decrease in productivity of boreal forests. However, the responses of contrasting shrub species growing at the same sites to c…
A warmer and greener cold world
Open AccessStef Weijers, Isla H Myers-Smith et al.ARTICLEErdkunde2018
The Arctic and alpine biome is rapidly warming, which might be causing an encroachment of relatively tall woody shrub vegetation into tundra ecosystems, which will probably result in an overall positive feedback to climate warming. This encroachment is, however, believed to remain limited to the relatively warm parts of the biome, where taller shrubs may displace shorter species. Still, climate sensitivity of shrub growth strongly differs between…
