Persistence and production of perennial grasses under water deficits and extreme temperatures: importance of intraspecific vs. interspecific variability (2012, methodology): “…by an average of +0.7 and +0.9 °C in 2009 and 2010, respectively (data not shown) i.e. lower than the increase projected for the A1B IPCC scenario (Terray et al., 2011) that had been anticipated in light of previous studies using shelters to reduce heat losses at night (Beier et al., 2004).”
Effects of long-term experimental night-time warming and drought on photosynthesis, Fv/Fm and stomatal conductance in the dominant species of a Mediterranean shrubland (2009, methodology): “The warming treatment consisted of night-time warming, using reflective curtains to cover the vegetation at night (Beier et al. 2004).”
Ecotypes of European grass species respond differently to warming and extreme drought (2011, background): “Experimental approaches to simulate the impacts of extremes in the precipitation regime (periods of drought or heavy rain) and of warming have been established in various ecosystems (Beier et al. 2004; Jentsch, Kreyling & Beierkuhnlein 2007; Fay et al. 2008; Smith 2011).”
Simulated climate change provokes rapid genetic change in the Mediterranean shrub Fumana thymifolia (2008, methodology): “Details of the experimental setup have been published previously in full (Beier et al., 2004; Lloret et al., 2004; Peñuelas et al., 2004).”
A new generation of climate‐change experiments: events, not trends (2007, background): “Another field experiment carried out in four European countries (Beier et al. 2004) tests the effects of extreme drought events and increased night-time temperature as a trend in heath systems.”
Experimental evidence of reduced diversity of seedlings due to climate modification in a Mediterranean‐type community (2004, unknown): “Drought treatment prevented water entering the system during plant growth seasons: in spring–summer and in autumn (Beier et al., 2004; Peñuelas et al., 2004).”
Drought and warming induced changes in P and K concentration and accumulation in plant biomass and soil in a Mediterranean shrubland (2008, methodology): “The coverage of the study plots is activated automatically according to preset light (less than 200 lx), rain, and wind (less than 10 m s) conditions (Beier et al. 2004).”
Experimental Evidence of Future Drier and Warmer Conditions Affecting Flowering of Two Co‐occurring Mediterranean Shrubs (2005, methodology): “Two types of climatic manipulations were performed using automatically sliding covers (Beier et al. 2004): 1.”
