To predict the influence of global warming on high-mountain plants, we have started an experiment on Mt. Kisokomagatake (2956 m), the Central Japanese Alps, using the ITEX (International Tundra Experiment) method. Four small greenhouses (OTC: open-top-chamber) were set up in May 1995 to cover two alpine species: Arctous alpinus var. japonica and Diapensla lapponica. The temperatures at plant height and the ground were measured in each OTC as well as a control plot without OTC. The average temperature in OTCs was higher than that in the control plot by 0.9℃. In accordance with the temperature enhancement, the plants in OTCs underwent some phenological changes during the summer of 1995. The duration from the leaf emergence to the beginning of...
