Studies of natural seed banks are a key factor for an improved understanding of the long-term implications of a warming climate on plant distribution and diversity. Increasing evidence shows that persistent seed banks provide resilience to a warming climate, especially in the most vulnerable ecosystems. Seed banks reduce the likelihood of ecosystem extinction by supporting a high diversity of native and endemic species, while allowing the survival of species no longer present in the standing vegetation. This resilience has been observed not only for annual species, but also for perennial species.
