Leaf mineral nutrition of Arctic plants in response to warming and deeper snow in northern Alaska

Article Abstract:

A critical component of Arctic system studies are articulating the consequences of global climate change on terrestrial ecosystem biogeochemistry. Leaf mineral nutrition responses of Tundra plants is an important measure of changes in organism and ecosystem attributes because leaf nitrogen and carbon contents effect photosynthesis, primary production, carbon budgets, leaf litter, and soil organic matter decomposition as well as herbivore forage quality.

Response of plant-pollinator communities to fire: changes in diversity, abundance and floral reward structure

Article Abstract:

A novel and highly integrated approach that quantifies the response to fire of pollinator communities, floral communities and floral reward structure is presented. The impact of fire on floral communities and their associated rewards that have clear implications for pollinator community structure is presented.
