“…In these ecosystems, field manipulative experiments have shown that climate directly influences plant phenology (Hoffmann et al, 2010;Dorji et al, 2013), reproduction (Klady et al, 2011), morphology (Hudson & Henry, 2009), growth (Hollister et al, 2005), floristic composition (Elmendorf et al, 2012a) and biotic interactions (Klanderud, 2005). However, most studies in these ecosystems have focused on mature plant responses in undisturbed vegetation (Briceño et al, 2015). Few have included disturbance as a factor (but see: Munier et al, 2010;Graae et al, 2010;Camac et al, 2015), or examined the influence of climate change on seedlings in post-disturbance environments.…”

“…Few have included disturbance as a factor (but see: Munier et al, 2010;Graae et al, 2010;Camac et al, 2015), or examined the influence of climate change on seedlings in post-disturbance environments. As a consequence, little is known about how climate affects seedling demographic rates (Briceño et al, 2015), particularly in alpine and tundra post-disturbance conditions. This is despite mounting evidence that seedling regeneration is important in alpine and arctic ecosystems (Venn & Morgan, 2009;Briceño et al, 2015), particularly for woody species Williams et al, 2014).…”

“…This complex interface of species with the prevailing climatic condition often guides species to develop dormancy, which will be broken with a particular set of conditions following seed dispersal but before growing season [3,5]. In particular, the changing climate is affecting arctic-alpine species in numerous ways [37] and this effect is the result of many complex interactions between the different biological, hydrological, climatic, and edaphic components of the surrounding ecosystems [38]. Consequently, it is useful to untangle the different mechanisms affecting seeds in order to understand how climate change might alter germination success and whether the experimental investigations analysed later in this review adequately address all the critical aspects of climate change.…”

“…This role becomes more important during intensive climate change including present global warming (ref. Briceño et al 2015). Under present global warming, plants must disperse seeds several hundred kilometers along the latitudinal gradient until the year 2100 to keep up with the rapid rate of global warming (IPCC 2013): On the other hand, plants need to disperse seeds only several hundred meters along the vertical gradient due to the drastic decrease in temperature with increasing altitude (i.e., 100 m upslope roughly corresponds to À0.65°C) (Barry and Chorley 2009;also see K€ orner and Spehn 2002).…”
