what is the effect of climate change on arctic plant species?

Want access to research about the effects of climate change on plant life in the North American western arctic?  To check out a bunch of botanical bibliographies click this posting title. You will be redirected to E-Flora BC.  All you do next is type 'climate change' in the search bar.

Also check out some of the 17,000 photos on their  'Photography Page'.  Beautiful.

The entire website is a dynamic and easy to navigate electronic atlas of the plants of British Columbia.

My opinion? This concept could be extended to serve and benefit the First Peoples in those communities who wish to keep a written and visual account of plant life as well as stories related to those plants (including customs, traditions and teachings intimately related to the land in which the plants are found)!
