Bridging data silos to holistically model plant macrophenology
Summary Phenological response to global climate change can impact ecosystem functions. There are various data sources from which spatiotemporal and taxonomic phenological data may be obtained: mobilized herbaria, community science initiatives, observatory networks, and remote sensing.

Automated extraction of leaf mass per area from digitized herbarium specimens
Summary The digitization of vast herbarium collections has made millions of plant specimen images freely available online, which can now be used to generate phenotypic datasets of unprecedented scope. Here, we assess the potential of computer vision tools to automate the extraction of predicted leaf mass per area (LMApred) from digitized herbarium ...

Summary The Arctic is experiencing some of the world's most rapid changes in climate. Arctic plant flowering time responses to climate change are understudied. Globally, conflicting evidence exists on whether flowering time responses to temperature are evolutionarily conserved.

Evolutionary legacies structure the geography of seagrass traits across the world's oceans
Summary Traits modulate species' ability to track shifts in climate, yet the extent to which traits have been shaped by the contemporary environment and/or historical processes remains poorly understood. Here, we fill this gap for the world's seagrasses, habitat‐forming species that provide critical ecosystem services.

Reduced snow cover at the alpine treeline: resistance and recovery of saplings
Summary At high elevations, tree saplings and shrubs are usually protected by mid‐winter snow cover, although climate change is expected to extend the snow‐free (SF) period. Exposure to winter drought, freeze–thaw events and freezing temperatures will therefore increase, inducing damages to the hydraulic system and to living cells, resulting in reduced
