Greater numbers of plant species in ruderal based environments were found in equatorial areas where the level of water (represented by mean annual precipitation) related variables are high, whereas competitive and stress tolerant based plant environments were found in locations where energy (represented by mean annual temperature) are expressed with greater weight acting on the distriGreater numbers of plant species in ruderal based environments were found in equatorial areas where the level of water (represented by mean annual precipitation) related variables are high, whereas competitive and stress tolerant based plant environments were found in locations where energy (represented by mean annual temperature) are expressed with greater weight acting on the distrigreater weight acting on the distribution.

... Polar amplification explains in part why Greenland Ice Sheet and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet appear to be highly sensitive to relatively small increases in CO2 concentration and global mean temperature... Polar amplification occurs if the magnitude of zonally averaged surface temperature change at high latitudes exceeds the globally averaged temperature change, in response to climate forcings and on time scales greater than the annual cycle.
