Determining the ecological consequences of interactions between slow changes in long-term climate means and amplified variability in climate is an important research frontier in plant ecology. We combined the recent approach of climate sensitivity functions with a revised hydrological ‘bucket model’ to improve predictions on how plant species will respond to changes in the mean and variance of groundwater resources.

河岸植物种类对地下水储量的均值和方差的敏感性不同

确定长期气候手段的缓慢变化与气候放大变异之间相互作用的生态后果是植物生态学的重要研究前沿。我们将最新的气候敏感性函数方法与修订后的水文“桶模型”相结合，以改善对植物物种将如何响应地下水资源均值和方差变化的预测。
