Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

Historical data reveal earlier flowering under environmental change
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Global temperatures have risen ~ 1.1°C since the 1800s and the mean annual air temperature in the Arctic has increased by nearly four times the global average. Temperature has a significant effect on fundamental life‐cycle events of flora and fauna. With temperatures increasing, Arctic plants are expected to shift their active periods accordingly, with

Life history stability under climate change: a wildflower at the northern edge of its range
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Stabilities of life history traits for a widespread native perennial wildflower, Rudbeckia laciniata L., are described for five populations near the northern edge of its range in North America. Theory proposes that such populations experience variable levels of stress as suitable abiotic conditions shift north or south from year to year, which ...

Two new endemic species of Portulaca (Portulacaceae) from the Brazilian Pampa grasslands
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Portulaca L. is a monophyletic, cosmopolitan genus of succulent plants comprising ca 153 species, with particularly high diversity in xerophytic ecosystems in tropical and subtropical regions. Based on morphological evidence, we describe and illustrate two new species from the Brazilian Pampa, Portulaca guaritensis and Portulaca guenoa.

Oikos, EarlyView.Many key ecosystem functions are affected by plant roots and their traits. However, understanding of the patterns in, and drivers of, root traits lags far behind equivalent knowledge of above‐ground tissues, particularly in boreal old growth forests. We surveyed community‐level root traits across 11 old growth forests spanning a wide latitudinal range ...
