Geology and climate drive alpine plant compositional variation among peaks in the Cascade Range of Washington. by Erik W Ertsgaard, Nicholas L Gjording, Jonathan D Bakker, Joseph A Kleinkopf, David E Giblin

“…Alpine areas are host to diverse plant communities that support ecosystems through structural and floral resources and persist through specialized adaptations to harsh high-elevation conditions. An ongoing question in these plant communities is whether composition is shaped by stochastic processes (e.g., dispersal limitations) or by deterministic processes (e.g., climate, geology), and if those processes select for common phylogenetic clades across space. …”
