Interactions between growth, demography and biotic interactions in determining species range limits in a warming world: the case of Pinus sylvestris (2012, background): “Given high seed production and evidence for a viable seed bank extending above the tree limit (Kullman, 1993, 2007b; Molau and Larsson, 2000), it is likely that seed availability is not a major limiting factor for tree-line advance at the current northern limit of Scots pine.”
Potential Effects of Climate Change on Treeline Position in the Swedish Mountains (2004, background): “Furthermore, Molau and Larsson (2000) found seeds of mountain birch both in the seed rain and in the seed bank at a site 300 m above, and some 5–8 km away from, the current treeline (Abisko, northern Sweden), which illustrates that seed dispersal within the calculated range occurs today.”
