Abstract:Inter-annual variability in growing season temperature and precipitation, together with snow coverage duration, determine vegetation growth in boreal ecosystems. However, little is known about the impact of concurrent and antecedent climate, particularly snow cover duration, on vegetation growth in a boreal riparian forest. Additionally, significant uncertainty exists regarding whether the distance to a river (as a proxy of groundwater availability) further modifies these climatic legacy effects on vegetation … Show more
