A first comprehensive census of fungi in soil reveals both hyperdiversity and fine-scale niche partitioning (2014, background): “…northern boreal regions are experiencing some of the most rapid and profound changes due to climate warming, including permafrost thaw and changes in fire regime, both factors that have uncertain implications for the massive stores of carbon in boreal soils (Schuur et al. 2009, Chapin et al. 2010).”
Dynamics of aboveground phytomass of the circumpolar Arctic tundra during the past three decades (2012, background): “However, northward movement of treeline is uncertain, and any potential reduction in tundra due to expansion of taiga is likely to be minimal over this time period relative to the extensive areas of tundra that are greening (Chapin et al 2010, Berner et al 2011, Lloyd et al 2011).”
