From apex to base: Uncovering spatial metabolic adaptation in Antarctic mosses
Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.Antarctic mosses survive extreme cold, desiccation, UV exposure, and oxidative stress. We analyzed three species by separating apical, middle, and basal zones. Each zone showed distinct metabolite patterns and biological roles, revealing spatial metabolic specialization. The results suggest that whole‐plant survival depends on coordinated contributions

Lichen cover mapping for caribou ranges in interior Alaska and Yukon
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Previous research indicates that the effects of climate warming, including shrub expansion and increased fire frequency may lead to declining lichen abundance in arctic tundra and northern alpine areas. Lichens are important forage for caribou ( Rangifer
