Are sub-alpine species' seedling emergence and establishment in the alpine limited by climate or biotic interactions?
Dahle, Ingrid Johnsen; Gya, Ragnhild; Töpper, Joachim Paul; Vandvik, Vigdis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)One of the ways in which plants are responding to climate change is by shifting their ranges to higher elevations. Early life- history stages are major bottlenecks for species' range shifts, and variation in seedling ... -
