Climate change: Diseqilibrium will become the norm in the plant communities of the future

Global climate change will induce large changes to the plant communities on Earth, but these will typically occur with major time lags. This has been demonstrated by a new analysis carried out by researchers at Aarhus University. Many plants will remain long after the climate has become unfavorable—and many new species can take thousands of years to make an appearance. Humans will play a key role in such disequilibrium dynamics.
