Climate change impacts on berry shrub growth, productivity and traditional use in Nunatsiavut, Labrador

This data represents baseline information on shrub tundra plant communities in Nunatsiavut. Our objectives are to: 1. Understand the local and regional effects of warming on tundra berry plant communities, 2. Evaluate experimental warming effects on shrub growth, plant interactions and habitat conditions, and determine impacts on berry shrub growth and productivity, 3. Identify and characterize important berry shrub pollinators, 4. Understand the impact of climate warming on plant-pollinator interactions and berry productivity, 5. Predict climate warming impacts on berry plant abundance, distribution, and traditional use.
