The ability of many species to adapt to the shifting environmental conditions associated with
climate change will be a key determinant of their persistence in the coming decades. This is …

Arctic warming can influence tundra ecosystem function with consequences for climate
feedbacks, wildlife and human communities. Yet ecological change across the Arctic tundra …

Planting trees has become a popular solution for climate change mitigation, owing to the
ability of trees to accumulate carbon in biomass and thereby reduce anthropogenic …

Abstract Ecosystems in the North American Arctic-Boreal Zone (ABZ) experience a diverse
set of disturbances associated with wildfire, permafrost dynamics, geomorphic processes …

Tundra and boreal ecosystems encompass the northern circumpolar permafrost region and
are experiencing rapid environmental change with important implications for the global …

Arctic tundra is becoming greener and shrubbier due to recent warming. This is impacting
climate feedbacks and wildlife, yet the spatial distribution of plant biomass in tundra …

Coastal wetlands contain some of the largest stores of pedologic and biotic carbon pools,
and climate change is likely to influence the ability of these ecosystems to sequester carbon …

Plant biomass is a fundamental ecosystem attribute that is sensitive to rapid climatic
changes occurring in the Arctic. Nevertheless, measuring plant biomass in the Arctic is …

There is fine-scale spatial heterogeneity in key vegetation properties including leaf-area
index (LAI) and biomass in treeless northern peatlands, and hyperspectral drone data with …

Tundra ecosystems hold large stocks of soil organic matter (SOM), likely due to low
temperatures limiting rates of microbial SOM decomposition more than those of SOM …
