Métodos para cuantificar diversidad y productividad vegetal de los bofedales frente al cambio climático Methods to quantify the diversity and the productivity of high-Andean wetlands under the effects of climate change

The diversity and the productivity of high Andean wetlands (hereafter termed bofedales) are expected to be negatively impacted by the rapid glacial recession following the effects of recent and upcoming climate change, impacting their area and their elevational distribution. Accordingly, a topical conservation challenge is to understand the organization and the functioning of these ecosystems in the face of global warming. We present a series of methods designed to examine
