A shrub bending model to calculate the albedo of shrub-tundra [PDF]
Hydrological Processes, 2012 At high latitudes, the albedo and energy budget of shrub-tundra landscapes is determined by the relationship between the fractional snow cover and the fraction of vegetation protruding above the snowpack. The exposed vegetation fraction is affected by the bending and/or burial of shrubs in winter and their spring-up during melt.

Shrubs indirectly increase desert seedbanks through facilitation of the plant community [PDF]
, 2019 The mechanisms supporting positive ecological interactions are important. Foundation species can structure desert biodiversity by facilitating seedbanks of annual plants, but the direct and indirect mechanisms of shrub effects on seedbank have not been ...

Evolutionary lability underlies drought adaptation of Australian shrubs along aridity gradients
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Leaf drought tolerance traits influence plant survival in water deficit conditions, and these traits are influenced by both the plant’s evolutionary history and the environment in which the plant is currently growing.
