Vegetation composition shifts, and in particular, shrub expansion across the Arctic tundra
are some of the most important and widely observed responses of high-latitude ecosystems …

As the Arctic warms, vegetation is responding, and satellite measures indicate widespread
greening at high latitudes. This 'greening of the Arctic'is among the world's most important …

As an important component of terrestrial ecosystem, vegetation acts as a sensitive recorder
of changes in hydroclimatic conditions. Long-term time series of remote sensing-based …

Enhanced shrub growth in a warming alpine climate has potential far-reaching implications,
including soil nutrient cycling, carbon storage, or water and surface energy exchanges …

Ongoing Arctic greening can increase productivity and reindeer pasture quality in the tundra.
However, greening may also entail proliferation of unpalatable species, with consequences …

Broad‐scale changes in arctic‐alpine vegetation and their global effects have long been
recognized and labeled one of the clearest examples of the terrestrial impacts of climate …

Abstract In the European Alps, air temperature has increased almost twice as much as the
global average over the last century and, as a corollary, snow cover duration has decreased …

Warming in recent decades has triggered shrub expansion in Arctic and alpine tundra,
which is transforming these temperature-limited ecosystems and altering carbon and …

Forests on oceanic islands, such as the Azores archipelago, enable interesting
dendroclimatic research, given their pronounced climatic gradients over short geographical …

Long time series of primary production are rarely available, restricting our mechanistic
understanding of vegetation and ecosystem dynamics under climate change …
