Rapid latitudinal range expansion at cold limits unlikely for temperate understory forest plants
Abstract We ask whether climate warming will be likely to trigger rapid northward range expansion for understory plants in the northeastern forests of North America at the temperate–boreal forest ecotone. We answer this question through a detailed analysis of contemporary occupancy patterns at cold...
