Short-term plant community responses to warming and defoliation in a northern temperate grassland
Download2011
Cahill, Jr. J. F., Bork, E. W., Chang, S. X., Deutsch, E. S.
Abstract: Little is known about the short-term impacts of warming on native plant community dynamics in the northern Canadian prairies. This study examined the immediate effects of elevated temperature and defoliation on plant community diversity, composition, and biomass within a native rough...

Shrub encroachment in arctic and alpine tundra: Patterns of expansion and ecosystem impacts.
DownloadFall 2011
With a warming climate, northern ecosystems will face significant ecological changes such as permafrost thaw, increased frequency of forest fires, and shifting ecosystem boundaries including the spread of canopy-forming shrubs into tundra communities. A growing number of observations show...
