Findings indicate that the impact of heavy rainfall events on plant growth in the High Arctic is mediated by seasonal timing and local moisture regimes. Late summer rainfall can extend the growing season for plants experiencing end‐of‐season water‐limitation by delaying onset of senescence.

Interaction of two tributary glacier branches and implications for surge behavior [PDF]
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2018A glacier surge is a dynamic phenomenon where the glacier after a long period of quiescence, increases its velocities by up to two orders of magnitude.

MoveTraits—A Database for Integrating Animal Behaviour Into Trait‐Based Ecology
We propose integrating animal behaviour into trait‐based ecology through movement traits – standardised and comparable metrics of animal movement derived from biologging data, such as daily displacements or range sizes. Explicitly accounting for behaviour will advance trait‐based research and allow for the quantification of behavioural reaction norms ...

ABSTRACT Cryoconite holes are among the most biologically active and diverse limnic habitats on glacier surfaces. The apex cryoconite consumers, tardigrades and rotifers, are known to contribute significantly to the processing and composition of supraglacial (i.e., glacier surface) organic matter (OM).

ABSTRACT Aim Freshwater rock pools are ephemeral and fragile habitats that support specialised animal taxa. While distributed worldwide, these habitats are usually neglected and overlooked. We used DNA metabarcoding and metaphylogeographic approaches to study inter and intraspecific tardigrade biodiversity to identify their biogeographic patterns to ...
