• The rich sides of mountain summits – a pan‐European view on aspect preferences of alpine plants (2016, background): “…a great variety of micro-habitats that differ significantly in species composition over short spatial distances (Scherrer & K€orner, 2010; K€orner, 2012), which strongly affects the distribution limits of species and of plant communities (Grabherr et al., 2001; Crawford, 2008; Wipf et al., 2013).”
• Accelerated increase in plant species richness on mountain summits is linked to warming (2018, unknown): “Numerous reports of species redistribution towards summits 8,12–14 and warming-induced changes in biodiversity on summits 13,15,16 suggest that mountain biota are highly sensitive to increasing temperatures 17 .”
