Abstract: This study adopts a twofold strategy by reviewing literature from scattered Himalayan studies (145 sites) to use meta data (i) to synthesize the ecosystem properties of treeline ecotone, treeline response to climate change and influencing… read more here.

Abstract: Human‐induced environmental change is occurring globally and alters ecosystem properties both directly, by changing abiotic conditions, and indirectly, by modifying community composition. The effects of changes in plant composition in determining ecosystem properties may be… read more here.
