Responses of trees and shrubs to climate warming at high latitudes
Principal Investigator: Baltzer, Jennifer L
Licensed Year(s): 2015 2014
Summary: The objective of this project is to determine the growth and recruitment responses of trees and shrubs to changing climate conditions near tree line and to study drivers of shrub expansion on the tundra.
