Forest microclimates contrast strongly with the climate outside forests. To fully understand
and better predict how forests' biodiversity and functions relate to climate and climate …

Tundra vegetation productivity and composition are responding rapidly to climatic changes
in the Arctic. These changes can, in turn, mitigate or amplify permafrost thaw. In this Review …

Ecological research heavily relies on coarse‐gridded climate data based on standardized
temperature measurements recorded at 2 m height in open landscapes. However, many …

Current analyses and predictions of spatially explicit patterns and processes in ecology most
often rely on climate data interpolated from standardized weather stations. This interpolated …

Species distribution models (SDMs) have rapidly evolved into one of the most widely used
tools to answer a broad range of ecological questions, from the effects of climate change to …

Aim Although species distribution models (SDMs) traditionally link species occurrences to
free‐air temperature data at coarse spatio‐temporal resolution, the distribution of organisms …

Microclimates are the thermal and hydric environments organisms actually experience, and
estimates of them are increasingly needed in environmental research. The availability of …

Climate warming is inducing widespread vegetation changes in Arctic tundra ecosystems,
with the potential to alter carbon and nutrient dynamics between vegetation and soils. Yet …

The Arctic is one of the least human-impacted parts of the world, but, in turn, tundra biome is
facing the most rapid climate change on Earth. These perturbations may cause major …

Microclimate varies greatly over short horizontal and vertical distances, and timescales. This
multi-level heterogeneity influences terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystem functions by …
