Potential Impacts of Climate Warming on Distribution of Euptelea pleiospermum along Altitude: An Experimental Simulation
气候变暖对领春木沿海拔分布潜在影响的实验模拟

Climate change has already triggered species distribution shifts along the elevation gradient in many mountainous regions.Seed germination and seedling survival of Euptelea pleiospermum with different seed sources were examined under different elevations,aspects,in the forest or in the gap,and in spring or winter.The results showed that gaps were necessary for seedling survival and establishment.Furthermore,seed germination rate and seedling survival rate were not significantly different between the populat...
