The FORMICA project investigates how microclimates in forests affect plant responses to climate change. By measuring temperature variations and conducting experiments, it aims to understand the buffering effects of forest structures on biodiversity and ecosystem processes.
Recent global warming is acting across ecosystems and threatening biodiversity.
Yet, due to slow responses, many biological communities are lagging behind warming of the macroclimate (the climate of a large geographic region).
The buffering of microclimates near the ground measured in localized areas, arising from terrain features such as vegetation and topography, can explain why many species are lagging behind macroclimate warming.
However, almost all studies ignore the effects of microclimati…
