Herbaceous perennial plants with short generation time have stronger responses to climate anomalies than those with longer generation time

Plant population growth rate is sensitive to annual temperature and precipitation anomalies. Here the authors analyse time series of population projection models from multiple biomes, finding a relationship between short generation times and strong demographic responses to climate—particularly preci...
