A multi-year experiment shows that lower precipitation predictability encourages plants’ early life stages and enhances population viability
Climate change is a key factor that may cause the extinction of species. The associated reduced weather predictability may alter the survival of plants, especially during their early life stages, when individuals are most fragile. While it is expected that extreme weather events will be highly detri...
