Tree recruitment, growth, and distribution at the circumpolar forest–tundra transition: introduction

Causes and consequences of changes in the circumpolar forest–tundra transition have received recent interest due to the increasing awareness of human-caused global climate change. The International Polar Year core project PPS Arctic focused these topics through exploring processes, changes, and spat...
