Horizon scanning of potential invasive alien plant species and their distribution in Norway under a changing climate

Ecography, EarlyView.
Invasive alien plant species can cause considerable ecological, economic, and social impacts, and the number of impactful species will likely increase with globalisation and anthropogenic climate change. Preventing potentially invasive alien plant species from becoming introduced is the most cost‐effective way to protect Norway's ecosystems from future

Macro-Climatic Distribution Limits Show Both Niche Expansion and Niche Specialization among C4 Panicoids [PDF]

, 2016
Grasses are ancestrally tropical understory species whose current dominance in warm open habitats is linked to the evolution of C4 photosynthesis. C4 grasses maintain high rates of photosynthesis in warm and water stressed environments, and the syndrome ...

Predicting global intraspecific trait variation of grasses

Ecography, EarlyView.
Plant traits are important for understanding community assembly and ecosystem processes, yet our understanding of intraspecific trait variation (ITV) is limited. This gap in our knowledge is partially because collecting trait data across a species' entire range is impractical, let alone across the ranges of multiple species within a plant family. Using

Urban vegetation change after a hundred years in a tropical city (San José de Costa Rica) [PDF]

Rev. Biol. Trop. (Int. J. Trop. Biol. ISSN-0034-7744) Vol. 58 (4): 1367-1386, December 2010, 2015
Urban vegetation is of key importance because a large proportion of the human population lives in cities. Nevertheless, urban vegetation is understudied outside central Europe and particularly, little is known about the flora of tropical Asian, African and Latin American cities.
