Early recruitment process dominated by vegetation reproduction for wetland plant is a key life-history stage affecting species distribution. Extreme climatic events, such as extreme temperature and heavy rainfall have been predicted to become more intense and frequent under future climate scenarios. To explore the effect of temperature and ooding depth on tubers sprouting and early growth of Bolboschoenus planiculmis, we conducted two arti cial experiments in the incubator and greenhouse,
Current climate models predict more intense rainstorms and temperature extreme events under future global climate change. Estimation of environmental factors thresholds might provide important information for the common patterns of species distributions and management of wetland ecosystems. The laboratory experiment
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
