Local climatic changes affect biodiversity responses to land use: A review (2019, background): “However, we are still learning about the extensive effects that land‐ use change has on the local environment, and the subsequent im‐ pacts on biodiversity (De Frenne et al., 2019).”
Forest microclimate dynamics drive plant responses to warming (2020, background): “, 35 the growing season), because they are most affected by canopy cover in deciduous forests and are among the most important climatic determinants of plant growth and survival (9, 30, 43).”
Vulnerability of global biodiversity hotspots to climate change (2021, background): “Recent research has highlighted the potential for forest canopies to cool the understorey and buffer species against climate warming (De Frenne et al., 2019; Senior et al., 2018).”
