Impacts of global climate change on the floras of oceanic islands – Projections, implications and current knowledge (2015, background): “able and within reach), adapt rapidly to changing conditions or to become extinct (Gillespie et al., 2008; Levine et al., 2008).”
Climate change and plant regeneration from seed (2011, background): “Among rare chaparral winter annuals, nine- to 100-fold population fluctuations were correlated with temperatures after the first major storm event of autumn and not season-long rainfall (Levine et al., 2008).”
The phenology of plant invasions: a community ecology perspective (2011, unknown): “We hypothesize that exotic species in more variable environments will benefit by responding to early precipitation or warming events, especially when native species are adapted to respond to more specific phenological cues (Levine et al. 2008).”
