Great to see our team's project on Arctic Climate Change reaching different audiences! #Qikiqtaruk @TeamShrub @ivarstudios @nwtresearch @InsideNatGeo @MeridianTree @ArcticBasecamp @ARC_AU @CharterArctic

Our recent encounter with VX technology at the @ArcticBasecamp was nothing short of revolutionary. By simulating the immersion of water flooding in #Qikiqtaruk, VX brings the stark reality of #climatechange closer than ever. This technology is not just showing us the future; it's urging us to protect it. 🗻

Can functional #traits define #tundra plant responses to #climate change?
The answer is in the title of our new paper @NatureComms!
🌱 Plant traits poorly predict winner and loser shrub species in a warming tundra biome
