High-latitude climate is strongly changing. How is high-latitude vegetation responding and how will it contribute to this change? Our key research regions are i) the ecotone of the Arctic treeline from the treeless tundra in the colder north, towards single-tree stands and open forest towards taiga in the warmer south ii) the transition from summergreen larches to evergreen needle-leafed taiga in Siberia and summergreen needle-leafe refugia in the North American boreal region.
