Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Overwintering of juvenile lupines was less successful at the snow poor off-coast site than at the snow rich mainland site.
- Intervention effect Snow poor off-coast winter conditions reduced flowering and leaf production of juvenile lupines in the following summer.
- Observation Dianthus deltoides showed a marked decrease in cover during early lupine colonization.
- Observation Rumex acetosella showed a marked decrease in cover during early lupine colonization.
- Observation Trifolium arvense almost disappeared from lupine-inhabited mesocosms.
- Mechanism Antennaria dioica may have benefitted from the nitrogen fixing lupine in leaf chlorophyll content.
- Observation Native meadow plants were generally resilient to snow poor winter conditions, judged by changes in cover.
- Observation Meadow plants used an early and warm spring for abundant growth in the second year.
