Altitudinal Zonation of Green Algae Biodiversity in the French Alps

Altitudinal Zonation of Green Algae Biodiversity in the French Alps

Mountain environments are marked by an altitudinal zonation of habitat types. They are home to a multitude of terrestrial green algae, who have to cope with abiotic conditions specific to high elevation, e.g., high UV irradiance, alternating desiccation, rain and snow precipitations, extreme diurnal...
