Quaking aspens (Populus tremuloides Michx.) are found in diverse habitats
throughout North America. While the biogeography of aspens'
distribution has been documented, the drivers of the phenotypic diversity
of aspen are still being explored. In our study, we examined differences
in climate between northern and southwestern populations of aspen, finding
large-scale differences between the populations. Our results suggest that
northern and southwestern populations live in distinct climates and
support the inclusion of genetic and phenotypic data with species
distribution modeling for predicting aspens' distribution.
