Functional composition of subalpine and alpine vegetation in the Apennine mountains
Alpine ecosystems are shaped by climatic stress, particularly extremes of temperature and precipitation. Characterising plant functional adaptations to such stresses can give us a better understanding of a whole...
Changes in composition, ecology and structure of high-mountain vegetation: a re-visitation study over 42 years
Mediterranean high-mountain ecosystems are increasingly threatened by climate change, causing biodiversity loss, habitat degradation and landscape modifications. In a new study published in AoB PLANTS, Evangelista et al...
