Precipitation Regulates Phenological Responses of Annual and Perennial Forbs to Warming and Degradation in an Alpine Meadow on the Qinghai–Xizang Plateau

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
Warming and degradation had negligible multi‐year mean effects on annual plant phenology, but their impacts varied strongly with interannual precipitation and spring soil moisture. Degradation amplified warming‐induced advancement of leaf‐out and extended the total active period of the perennial Aster tataricus via microclimatic amplification and ...

Mountain ecosystems are disproportionately exposed to global warming, which may put alpine plant species in particular at risk. Plant species' migration and persistence depend on successful seed regeneration, with demographic traits such as germination being strongly sensitive to both present and ancestral climate.
