Another paper alert 📰! How understory vegetation has changed over 40 years in boreal forest at high latitudes (nordia.journal.fi/article/view...). Also, Nordia publishes articles OA WITHOUT any cost to authors.
Dwarf shrub expansion and loss of lichens distinctly dominate multi-decadal changes in northern boreal understory plant communities
Northern boreal forests and treelines are particularly sensitive to the current climate change that has already resulted in increased productivity, shrub expansion and up- and northward shifts of spec...
