Abstract: Environmentally cued germination may play an important role in promoting coexistence in Mediterranean annual plant systems if it causes niche differentiation across heterogeneous microsite conditions. In this study, we tested how microsite conditions experienced by… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Warming climate in U.S. forests may limit future viability of dominant high-elevation species at their lower elevation range limits but favor more drought-adapted sympatric species, potentially contributing to species distribution changes. Adaptive management may… read more here.
