Braking effect of climate and topography on global change-induced upslope forest expansion
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
Forests are expected to expand into alpine areas due to global climate change. It has recently been shown that temperature alone cannot realistically explain this process and that upslope tree advance in a warmer scenario ...
Exploring the compass of potential changes induced by climate warming in plant communities
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
New models are required to predict the impacts of future climate change on biodiversity. A move must be made away from individual models of single species toward approaches with synergistically interacting species. The ...
Climate change will seriously impact bird species dwelling above the treeline: A prospective study for the Italian Alps
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
High mountain systems are predicted to be especially vulnerable to the impact of climate change, with the climatically-constrained tree limit rapidly shifted upslope. In turn, the impact of upward treeline migration on ...
