Direct Effects on Boreal Forest Trees in Northern Europe
1993
Koski, V. (Finnish Forest Research Institute, Vantaa (Finland). Department of Forest Ecology)
Northern species not only tolerate but even benefit vegetatively from a slightly warmer climate than they have been adapted to. If the climatic warming remains below 5 celsius in annual mean temperature, the present forest will not be subject to direct disaster. Reproductive processes are likely to be enhanced through increased flowering and better seed maturation. There are few empirical studies on reproductive biology in new environments.
