Experimental warming differentially affects vegetative and reproductive phenology of tundra plants

Collins, Courtney G.; Elmendorf, Sarah C.; Hollister, Robert D.; Henry, Greg H.R.; Clark, Karin; ... more authors ... less authors ( Nature Research , 2021 , Article)

Rapid climate warming is altering Arctic and alpine tundra ecosystem structure and function, including shifts in plant phenology. While the advancement of green up and flowering are well-documented, it remains unclear ...

Decreased soil moisture due to warming drives phylogenetic diversity and community transitions in the tundra

Scharn, Ruud; Little, Chelsea J.; Bacon, Christine D.; Alatalo, Juha M.; Antonelli, Alexandre; ... more authors ... less authors ( IOP Publishing , 2021 , Article)

Global warming leads to drastic changes in the diversity and structure of Arctic plant communities. Studies of functional diversity within the Arctic tundra biome have improved our understanding of plant responses to ...

Effects of ambient climate and three warming treatments on fruit production in an alpine, subarctic meadow community

Alatalo, Juha M.; Jägerbrand, Annika K.; Dai, Junhu; Mollazehi, Mohammad D.; Abdel-Salam, Abdel-Salam G.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Wiley , 2021 , Article)

Premise Climate change is having major impacts on alpine and arctic regions, and inter‐annual variations in temperature are likely to increase. How increased climate variability will impact plant reproduction is ...

Visitors off the trail: Impacts on the dominant plant, bryophyte and lichen species in alpine heath vegetation in sub-arctic Sweden

Monika, Rawat; Jägerbrand, Annika K.; Molau, Ulf; Bai, Yang; Alatalo, Juha M. ( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)

Alpine ecosystems are under increasing pressure due to tourism and recreational activities. When leaving designated trails as is frequently observed, visitors can cause unintentional damage to vegetation. This study ...

Vegetation responses to 26 years of warming at Latnjajaure Field Station, northern Sweden

Scharn, Ruud; Brachmann, Cole G.; Patchett, Aurora; Reese, Heather; Bjorkman, Anne; ... more authors ... less authors ( NRC Research Press , 2021 , Article)

Climate change is rapidly warming high latitude and high elevation regions influencing plant community composition. Changes in vegetation composition have motivated the coordination of ecological monitoring networks across ...

The tundra phenology database: More than two decades of tundra phenology responses to climate change

Prevéy, Janet; Elmendorf, Sarah; Bjorkman, Anne; Alatalo, Juha; Ashton, Isabel; ... more authors ... less authors ( NRC Research Press , 2021 , Article)

Observations of changes in phenology have provided some of the strongest signals of the effects of climate change on terrestrial ecosystems. The International Tundra Experiment (ITEX), initiated in the early 1990s, established ...
