Alpine treeline ecotone stasis in the face of recent climate change and disturbance by fire.
How species respond to climate change will depend on biological characteristics, species physiological limits, traits (such as dispersal), and interactions with disturbance. We examine multi-decadal shifts in the distribution of trees at the alpine treeline in response to regional warming and repeat...
