As the Arctic continues to warm faster than the rest of the planet, evidence mounts that the
region is experiencing unprecedented environmental change. The hydrological cycle is …

Shrub recruitment, a key component of vegetation dynamics beyond forests, is a highly
sensitive indicator of climate and environmental change. Warming-induced tip** points in …

Abstract The Late-Quaternary climate of Beringia remains unresolved despite the region's
role in modulating glacial-interglacial climate and as the likely conduit for human dispersal …

Excessive concentration of greenhouse gases in atmosphere emitted from human activities
has been considerably changing the world's climate, especially in the last 50 years …

Willows (Salix) are some of the most abundant shrubs in cold alpine and tundra biomes. In
alpine regions, seed dispersal is not limiting upwards willow expansion, so the upslope shift …

Biodiversity is declining globally in response to multiple human stressors, including climate
forcing. Nonetheless, local diversity trends are inconsistent in some taxa, obscuring …

Aim Plant growth and phenology respond plastically to changing climatic conditions in both
space and time. Species‐specific levels of growth plasticity determine biogeographical …

Radial tree growth is sensitive to environmental conditions, making observed growth
increments an important indicator of climate change effects on forest growth. However …

Understanding the relative importance of different water sources that replenish soil water
storage is necessary to assess the vulnerability of sub‐arctic areas to changes in climate …

Subarctic ecohydrological processes are changing rapidly, but detailed and integrated
ecohydrological investigations are not as widespread as necessary. We introduce an …
