Climate change and plant regeneration from seed
At the core of plant regeneration, temperature and water supply are critical drivers for seed
dormancy (initiation, break) and germination. Hence, global climate change is altering these …

Climate change in western US deserts: potential for increased wildfire and invasive annual grasses
JT Abatzoglou, CA Kolden - Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2011 - Elsevier
Anthropogenic climate change is hypothesized to modify the spread of invasive annual

Tropical plants do not have narrower temperature tolerances, but are more at risk from warming because they are close to their upper thermal limits
Aim Tropical species are thought to be more susceptible to climate warming than are higher
latitude species. This prediction is largely based on the assumption that tropical species can …

Reproductive losses due to climate change‐induced earlier flowering are not the primary threat to plant population viability in a perennial herb
Despite a global footprint of shifts in flowering phenology in response to climate change, the
reproductive consequences of these shifts are poorly understood. Furthermore, it is …

Variation in the seasonal germination niche across an elevational gradient: the role of germination cueing in current and future climates
Premise The timing of germination has profound impacts on fitness, population dynamics,
and species ranges. Many plants have evolved responses to seasonal environmental cues …

Life history adaptations to fluctuating environments: Combined effects of demographic buffering and lability
Demographic buffering and lability have been identified as adaptive strategies to optimise
fitness in a fluctuating environment. These are not mutually exclusive, however, we lack …
