Shrubs inhibit plant diseases by intercepting light in alpine meadows
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 1644-1655, June 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate change is disproportionately impacting mountain ecosystems, leading to widespread shrub expansion into alpine meadows. Shrub encroachment alters the albedo, carbon budget and warming rate in alpine grasslands, but it remains challenging to predict how shrub ...
