| Description | Climatic change and abandonment of (sub)alpine pasture land enable trees to migrate into areas that are presently covered by dwarf-shrub communities. The advent of trees has the following consequences: (1) changed quality of aboveground litter, (2) changes in the diurnal and seasonal amplitude of soil temperature, (3) changes in the soil microbial community, (4) changes in the rooting density and depth. In Obergurgl, Ötztal, Austria, a dwarf-shrub community in 1800-2100 m a.s.l. is gradually... |
