In Yukon, Canada, average air temperature has increased by 2° C over the past 50 years
and, by the end of the century up to 6.9° C of further warming is predicted, along with …

Arctic warming is affecting snow cover and soil hydrology, with consequences for carbon
sequestration in tundra ecosystems. The scarcity of observations in the Arctic has limited our …

Terrestrial biosphere models (TBMs) are highly sensitive to model representation of
photosynthesis, in particular the parameters maximum carboxylation rate and maximum …

The development of evidence-based international strategies for the conservation and
management of Arctic ecosystems in the face of climate change is hindered by critical …

Plants are often genetically specialized as ecotypes attuned to local environmental
conditions. When conditions change, the optimal environment may be physically displaced …

The response of vegetation to climate change has implications for the carbon cycle and
global climate. It is frequently assumed that a species responds uniformly across its range to …

Eriophorum vaginatum is a tussock‐forming sedge that contributes significantly to the
structure and primary productivity of moist acidic tussock tundra. Locally adapted …

The phenology of Arctic plants is an important determinant of the pattern of carbon uptake
and may be highly sensitive to continued rapid climate change. Eriophorum vaginatum …

Ecotypic differentiation in the tussock‐forming sedge Eriophorum vaginatum has led to the
development of populations that are locally adapted to climate in Alaska's moist tussock …

The effect of climate change on phenology and growth is less understood for belowground
plant tissues than for aboveground plant tissues, particularly in high-latitude regions …
