Understanding how plants respond to climate change and extreme weather events is crucial for predicting future ecological impacts. In a recent study by Contreras-Serrano et al., published in Global Change Biology, researchers explored how Arctic shrubs react to increased temperatures, heat waves, and drought conditions. A central part of their research involved analyzing volatile organic compounds (VOCs), essential chemical markers emitted by plants under stress.
To handle the complex GC-MS data generated in this study, the team relied on our powerful software, PARADISe. With its precision in peak detection and robust data handling capabilities, PARADISe was instrumental in simplifying complex VOC profiles, enabling clear identification and quantification of plant emissions under varying climate scenarios.
This study illustrates how PARADISe can empower ecological research, turning complex analytical data into actionable ecological knowledge, essential for addressing pressing environmental challenges.
