Title Description
Protected areas in Borneo may fail to conserve tropical forest biodiversity under climate change Protected areas (PAs) are key for conserving rainforest species, but many PAs are becoming increasingly isolated within agricultural landscapes, which may have...
Temperature and precipitation controls over leaf- and ecosystem-level CO2 flux along a woody plant encroachment gradient Conversion of grasslands to woodlands may alter the sensitivity of CO2 exchange of individual plants and entire ecosystems to air temperature and precipitation....
Effects of Climatic Variability and Change on Forest Ecosystems: General Technical Report PNW-GTR-870 December 2012 This report is a scientific assessment of the current condition and likely future condition of forest resources in the United States relative to climatic variab...
Identifying human influences on atmospheric temperature We perform a multimodel detection and attribution study with climate model simulation output and satellite-based measurements of tropospheric and stratospheric ...
Carbon Storage with Benefits Biochar—a material related to charcoal—has the potential to benefit farming as well as mitigate climate change.
Rapid Range Shifts of Species Associated with High Levels of Climate Warming The distributions of many terrestrial organisms are currently shifting in latitude or elevation in responseto changing climate. Using a meta-analysis, we estima...
The search for unknown biodiversity 1st paragraph: in a world being rapidly transformed by human activities, an alarming possibility is that many species might disappear before we have a chance to...
The Hot Summer of 2010: Redrawing the Temperature Record Map of Europe The summer of 2010 was exceptionally warm in eastern Europe and large parts of Russia. We provide evidence that the anomalous 2010 warmth that caused adverse ...
Spatial relationship between climatologies and changes in global vegetation activity Vegetation forms a main component of the terrestrial biosphere and plays a crucial role in land-cover and climate- related studies. Activity of vegetation syste...
Future hotspots of terrestrial mammal loss Current levels of endangerment and historical trends of species and habitats are the main criteria used to direct conservation efforts globally. Estimates of fu...
Faustian bargains? Restoration realities in the context of biodiversity offset policies The science and practice of ecological restoration are increasingly being called upon to compensate for the loss of biodiversity values caused by development pr...
Biotic Multipliers of Climate Change A focus on species interactions may improve predictions of the effects of climate change on ecosystems.
On the vapour trail of an atmospheric imprint in insects Terrestrial arthropods, at constant risk from desiccation, are highly sensitive to atmospheric temperature and humidity. A physiological marker of these abiotic...
Experimental climate change weakens the insurance effect of biodiversity Ecosystems are simultaneously affected by biodiversity loss and climate change, but we know little about how these factors interact. We predicted that climate w...
Fear of failure in conservation: The problem and potential solutions to aid conservation of extremely small populations The potential for extirpation of extremely small populations (ESPs) is high due to their vulnerability to demographic and environmental stochasticity and negat...
REfugia in conservation.pdf
Responses of soil and water chemistry to mountain pine beetle induced tree mortality in Grand County, Colorado, USA Pine forest in northern Colorado and southern Wyoming, USA, are experiencing the most severe moun- tain pine beetle epidemic in recorded history, and possible d...
Post-clearcut dynamics of carbon, water and energy exchanges in a midlatitude temperate, deciduous broadleaf forest environment Clearcutting and other forest disturbances perturb carbon, water, and energy balances in significant ways, with corre- sponding influences on Earth’s climate ...
Emergence of a mid-season period of low floral resources in a montane meadow ecosystem associated with climate change Summary. 1. Shifts in the spatial and temporal patterns of flowering could affect the resources available to pollinators, and such shifts might become more comm...
The False Spring of 2012, Earliest in North American Record 2nd paragraph: As global climate warms, increasingly warmer springs may combine with the random climatological occurrence of advective freezes, which result fro...
