Accelerated increase in plant species richness on mountain summits is linked to warming (2018, positive): “…become established at high-elevation sites, local extinctions will be likely to result from competitive replacement of slow-growing, stress-tolerant alpine species by more vigorous generalists that benefit from warming, rather than by direct adverse effects of warming on the summit species 26 .”
Non-native and native organisms moving into high elevation and high latitude ecosystems in an era of climate change: new challenges for ecology and conservation (2016, background): “However, this may not be the case for human-dispersed non-native species, which can possess different traits to thermophilous species, possibly making them less susceptible to generalist herbivores (Alexander et al. 2015).”
Direct and indirect effects of invasive species: Biodiversity loss is a major mechanism by which an invasive tree affects ecosystem functioning (2019, background): “Many studies have looked at how global change directly and indirectly affects biodiversity (Adler, Dalgleish, & Ellner, 2012; Alexander, Diez, & Levine, 2015), however, few studies have looked at direct and biodiversity mediated indirect effects of global change on ecosystem functions.”
Stay or go – how topographic complexity influences alpine plant population and community responses to climate change (2017, background): “The strength of biotic interactions are however themselves often dependent on climate (Pellissier et al., 2013; Anthelme et al., 2014; Alexander et al., 2015; Olsen et al., 2016), and may therefore also enforce processes determined by landscape heterogeneity.”
Evolution of Ecological Niche Breadth (2017, background): “Climate acts as a major constraint on the niche, yet there are many indirect risk factors with global change aside from climate effects (Alexander et al. 2015).”
Spatial-temporal dynamics of a Lotka-Volterra competition model with nonlocal dispersal under shifting environment (2019, background): “There have been some field studies on such topics, for example, see [16,1,2, 34,40] and the references therein.”
Mix and match: regional admixture provenancing strikes a balance among different seed-sourcing strategies for ecological restoration (2018, neutral): “soil conditions, photoperiod, neighbouring plants, herbivores or pathogens (Laine 2005; Leimu et al. 2012; Kalske et al. 2012; Alexander et al. 2015).”
