Small-scale variation in growing season length affects size structure of scarlet moneyflower
Article Abstract:
The hypothesis that markedly different growing season length controls the plant size variations is explored. Results suggest that emergence time may be a key determinant of plant size structure along rivers, an important result considering forecasted variation in water flows with climate change.

Diaspore ecology of Mertensia maritima: effects of physical treatments and their relative timing on dispersal and germination
Article Abstract:
Research on the beach plant Mertensia maritima shows that plant dispersal is linked to the condition of plant nutlets, but that nutlet germination is significantly dependent on the order of exposures to water and cold temperatures.
