“…Simulation experiments using open‐top chambers have demonstrated that an increase of 1–3°C in summer temperatures (Marion et al., ) can increase shrub cover, height and biomass (Arft et al., ; Wahren, Walker, & Bret‐Harte, ). There is also experimental evidence that nutrient availability might be more limiting than temperature for shrub growth (Chapin, Shaver, Giblin, Nadelhoffer, & Laundre, ; DeMarco, Mack, & Bret‐Harte, ), as shrub biomass shows a stronger increase to nutrient addition treatments than to experimental warming (DeMarco, Mack, Bret‐Harte, Burton, & Shaver, ; Gough, Moore, Shaver, Simpson, & Johnson, ; Shaver et al., ).…”
