Changing Snow Regime Classifications Across the Contiguous United States

Water Resources Research
Climate change is impacting snow phenology in the Contiguous US (CONUS) and altering locations of elevated risk for floods driven by snowmelt. Our study uses a new spatial snow regime classification system to track climate driven changes in snow ...

Tree growth response and adaptation to climate change and climate extremes: From canopy to stem

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes the responses and adaptations of tree growth, including canopy phenology, intra‐annual wood formation dynamics, and annual stem growth, to climate change and climate extremes. It highlights key knowledge gaps for future research to support sustainable forest management and enhance forest carbon storage under ongoing climate ...

Spatiotemporal Variability of Seasonal Snow Cover over 25 Years in the Romanian Carpathians: Insights from a MODIS CGF-Based Approach

Remote Sensing
Understanding long-term snow cover dynamics is essential in mountain regions with limited meteorological or in situ observations. This study examines seasonal snow cover evolution across the Romanian Carpathians (2000–2025) using daily MODIS/Terra ...

Historic disturbance events overruled climatic factors as drivers of ruderal species distributions in the Scandinavian mountains

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The contemporary interaction of climate and disturbance drives vegetation composition and species distribution shifts, making their respective roles difficult to disentangle. This study describes the long‐term ruderal plant species distributions along the ‘Rallarvägen' in Abisko, subarctic Sweden.

Impacts of snow cover duration on vegetation spring phenology over the Tibetan Plateau

Journal of Plant Ecology, 2018
Snow cover occupies large percentage of land surface in Tibetan Plateau. Snow cover duration (SCD) during non-growing seasons plays a critical role in regulating alpine vegetation’s phenology by affecting the energy budgets of land surface and soil moisture conditions.

Cold hardiness mechanisms and modeling: existing approaches and future avenues

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Cold hardiness models are useful tools to predict cold damage in plants, such as those produced by unseasonal temperature cycles or by increased cold exposure. Although development of these models started about five decades ago, their applications remain limited.
