Science Magazine - One Issue Forest Microclimate: how plant communities respond to warming The legacy of Mount St. Helens Throughout history, inequality has shaped pandemics Intrinsic clock in malaria Pages 677-788 Cover: Light shines through the trees of Eilenriede city forest, Hanover, Germany. Increased tree cover reduces below-canopy temperature extremes. This temperature-buffering effect slows local warming and protects plants against climate change. By contrast, plant community changes are most pronounced in forests where tree cover is reduced over time. These findings will have important implications for forest management and biodiversity conservation.
