Climate synchronises shrub growth across a high‐arctic archipelago: contrasting implications of summer and winter warming

Climate change is most pronounced at high latitudes, where plant and animal populations are often strongly influenced by environmental fluctuations related to climate and weather. Environmental conditions can co‐fluctuate over large distances and thereby synchronise primary production in space. Howe...
