New lab paper: Global plant trait relationships extend to the climatic extremes of the tundra biome

Global plant trait relationships hold even at the cold extremes of plant life on Earth. Check out our new paper led by Haydn Thomas from Team Shrub with over 100 coauthors from the Tundra Trait Team, and led by Dr. Anne Bjorkman and Dr. Isla Myers-Smith. The main finding is that plant life in some of the harshest environments on the planet follows the same ‘rules’ as in other biomes.

Check out the study at Nature Communications. We provided some data for this important study, and contributed to the manuscript, but the real effort came from the rest of the team. Congratulations to all on this important work!
