Pre‐industrial land‐use limits contemporary shrub encroachment in the French Alps
Shrub encroachment has become a global phenomenon in recent decades. While global warming in the Arctic is often cited as the primary cause, human‐managed mountain regions have experienced intense historical land‐use that may also play a considerable role.
