Vertical root distribution and biomass allocation along proglacial chronosequences in Central Switzerland
Investigating changes in belowground functional plant traits is an important step toward a better understanding of vegetation dynamics during primary succession. However, in alpine glacier forelands, we still lack an accurate assessment of plant rooting patterns. In this study, we established two pr...
