Alpine flora is changing rapidly as a result of climate change. Soils are a vital but largely unexplored factor in this process. They also store the biggest amounts of CO2. However, how alpine soils will change in a warmer climate is largely unknown, according to researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL), writing in the journal Science.
