Shrub growth and plant diversity along an elevation gradient: Evidence of indirect effects of climate on alpine ecosystems. [PDF]
Enhanced shrub growth and expansion are widespread responses to climate warming in many arctic and alpine ecosystems. Warmer temperatures and shrub expansion could cause major changes in plant community structure, affecting both species composition and ...

Seasonal variation of leaf functional traits in sub‐Arctic plants
Leaf functional traits are informative of plant fitness and functions in ecosystems. These functional traits and their variation across geographic extents are much studied but less is known about their temporal variation over a growing season. Here, we provide an analysis of the seasonal variation in six leaf functional traits of 11 sub‐Arctic vascular
