Ecology Podcast

In this podcast, Gesche Blume-Werry and Ken talk about snowmelt, root-growth and phenology - and the importance of looking underground. Gesche's paper "Root phenology unresponsive to earlier snowmelt despite advanced above‐ground phenology in two subarctic plant communities" was a Highly Commended paper by an early career author - read this paper, along with other prizewinning and highly commended papers here: http://bit.ly/BESECR2017
