      Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic grids do not reflect conditions below vegetation ...
    • Herbivory damage but not plant disease under experimental warming is dependent on weather for three subalpine grass species 

      Lynn, Joshua Scott; Abo-Sido, Nisreen; McCowen, Ian W.; Villanueva, Shermila B.; Harte, John; Rudgers, Jennifer A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Both theory and prior studies predict that climate warming should increase attack rates by herbivores and pathogens on plants. However, past work has often assumed that variation in abiotic conditions other than temperature ...
    • Macroecological context predicts species' responses to climate warming 

      Lynn, Joshua Scott; Klanderud, Kari; Telford, Richard James; Goldberg, Deborah E.; Vandvik, Vigdis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Context-dependencies in species' responses to the same climate change frustrate attempts to generalize and make predictions based on experimental and observational approaches in biodiversity science. Here, we propose ...
    • Mammalian herbivores restrict the altitudinal range limits of alpine plants. 

      Lynn, Joshua Scott; Miller, Tom E.X.; Rudgers, Jennifer A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Although rarely experimentally tested, biotic interactions have long been hypothesised to limit low-elevation range boundaries of species. We tested the effects of herbivory on three alpine-restricted plant species by ...
    • More than what they eat: uncoupled biophysical constraints underlie geographic patterns of herbivory 

      Lynn, Joshua Scott; Fridley, Jason D.; Vandvik, Vigdis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Herbivory rates have classically been hypothesized to decrease from the tropics towards higher latitudes because the more benign abiotic conditions in tropical systems foster greater ecosystem complexity including greater ...
    • The role of plant functional groups mediating climate impacts on carbon and biodiversity of alpine grasslands 

      Vandvik, Vigdis; Althuizen, Inge; Jaroszynska, Francesca; Krüger, Linn Cecilie; Lee, Hanna; Goldberg, Deborah E.; Klanderud, Kari; Olsen, Siri Lie; Telford, Richard James; Hjortland Östman, Silje Andrea; Busca, Sara; Dahle, Ingrid Johnsen; Egelkraut, Dagmar Dorothea; Geange, Sonya Rita; Gya, Ragnhild; Lynn, Joshua Scott; Meineri, Eric Pierre F; Young, Sherry; Halbritter Rechsteiner, Aud Helen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Plant removal experiments allow assessment of the role of biotic interactions among species or functional groups in community assembly and ecosystem functioning. When replicated along climate gradients, they can assess ...
    • Winters are changing: snow effects on Arctic and alpine tundra ecosystems 

      Rixen, Christian; Høye, Toke Thomas; Macek, Petr; Aerts, Rien; Alatalo, Juha; Andeson, Jill; Arnold, Pieter; Barrio, Isabel C.; Bjerke, Jarle W.; Björkman, Mats P.; Blok, Daan; Blume-werry, Gesche; Boike, Julia; Bokhorst, Stef; Carbognani, Michele; Christiansen, Casper Tai; Convey, Peter; Cooper, Elisabeth J.; Cornelissen, J.

      Snow is an important driver of ecosystem processes in cold biomes. Snow accumulation determines ground temperature, light conditions and moisture availability during winter. It also affects the growing season’s start and ...
