Thermophilization: Concepts, Methods, and Implications of Changes in Community Composition due to Global Warming

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
As many species shift their geographic ranges coldward due to global warming, communities will undergo “thermophilization”—the increasing relative abundance of warm‐adapted (“thermophilic”) species and the concomitant decrease of cold‐adapted species over time.

Natural Snow Accumulation Gradients Mediate Environmental and Plant Trait Responses to Earlier Snowmelt in Alpine Tundra

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 8, August 2026.
We experimentally accelerated snowmelt along gradients of natural snow accumulation to test if deep snow areas are more sensitive to early snowmelt. Some environmental variables responded to experimentally accelerated snowmelt like snow‐off timing and growing season length; this did not translate into consistent changes to the plant community ...

Arctic plants can take up inorganic nitrogen year‐round

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 1694-1708, August 2026.
Schematic overview of year‐round, Arctic seasonal periods as used throughout the paper and their relation to the 15 repeated measuring periods (top) and the three a priori contrasts (middle) used for statistical testing of seasonality in N‐uptake. Summary Arctic tundra experiences strong climatic seasonality, with cold and long winters, but effective ...

Ecological niches and biogeography of nitrogen‐fixing plants in Europe

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1349-1360, August 2026.
Despite sharing N fixation as a common trait, European legume and actinorhizal plant lineages occupy strikingly divergent ecological niches shaped by their evolutionary histories and physiological adaptations. Advanced symbiont control allows IRLC legumes to expand into northern, mesic regions, while non‐IRLC legumes are more common in Mediterranean ...
