We found that both range limits and optima shifted upward in elevation, but the most pronounced trend was a mean increase in species abundance.

Traits affecting the species’ dispersal and persistence capacity were not related to their range dynamics. Using indicator values to stratify species by their thermal and nutrient demands revealed that elevational ranges of thermophilic species tended to expand, while those of cold-adapted species tended to contract.

In the decades to come, high-alpine species may hence face the double pressure of climatic changes and novel, superior competitors that move up faster than they themselves can escape to even higher elevations.</jats:p> Range dynamics of mountain plants decrease with elevation Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences |
