The paper uses demographic models to show clonal reproduction affects population growth of Thermopsis lanceolata differently across mound stages under disturbance and warming.

The paper finds that grazing removal benefits alpine plant populations under current conditions but these benefits are negated by climate warming.

The paper uses demographic models to show how two similar plant species respond differently to nitrogen deposition, with one compensating for reduced survival and the other tracking nitrogen levels.

The paper shows that demographic compensation in alpine grassland species buffers population decline under heavy grazing, supporting the Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis at the population level.
