Land cover effects on runoff patterns in eastern Piedmont (USA) watersheds Physiography and land cover determine the hydrologic response of watersheds to climatic events. However, vast differences in climate regimes and variation of la...
Impacts of mountaintop mining on terrestrial ecosystem integrity: identifying landscape thresholds for avian species in the central Appalachians, United States Reclaimed mine-dominated landscapes (less forest and more grassland/shrubland cover) elicited more negative (57 %) than positive (39 %) species responses. Negat...
Ice melt, sea level rise and superstorms: evidence from paleoclimate data, climate modeling, and modern observations that 2C global warming is highly dangerous There is evidence of ice melt, sea level rise to +5–9 m, and extreme storms in the prior interglacial period that was less than 1◦C warmer than today. Human...
Observed and predicted effects of climate change on species abundance in protected areas The dynamic nature and diversity of species’ responses to climate change poses significant difficulties for developing robust, long-term conservation strategi...
Impact of reduced Arctic sea ice on Greenland ice sheet variability in a warmer than present climate A global climate model with interactive vegetation and a coupled ice sheet-shelf component is used to test the response of the Greenland ice sheet (GIS) to incr...
From Past to Future Warming Analyses of past observations help to predict the human contribution to future climate change. 21 FEBRUARY 2014 VOL 343 SCIENCE
Dramatically increasing chance of extremely hot summers since the 2003 European heatwave Socio-economic stress from the unequivocal warming of the global climate system(1)could be mostly felt by societies through weather and climate extremes (2). Th...
Climate Change Conversations THE THOUSANDS OF PRESENTATIONS AT NEXT WEEK’S MEETING OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY (ACS) in New Orleans exemplify one of the many ways scientists converse...
Model projections of atmospheric steering of Sandy-like superstorms Superstorm Sandy ravaged the eastern seaboard of the United States, costing a great number of lives and billions of dollars in damage. Whether events like Sandy...
Impacts of reforestation upon sediment load and water outflow in the Lower Yazoo River Watershed, Mississippi Among the world’s largest coastal and river basins, the Lower Mississippi River Alluvial Valley (LMRAV) is one of the most disturbed by human activities. This...
Old Trees: Extraction, Conservation Can Coexist BECAUSE LARGE OLD TREES ARE ESSENTIAL FOR FOREST ECOSYSTEM INTEGRITY AND BIODIVERsity, timber extraction in managed forests should preferentially be concentrat...
Pervasive Externalities at the Population, Consumption, and Environment Nexus Growing concerns that contemporary patterns of economic development are unsustainable have given rise to an extensive empirical literature on population growth,...
Untangling the confusion around land carbon science and climate change mitigation policy Depletion of ecosystem carbon stocks is a significant source of atmospheric CO2 and reducing land-based emissions and maintaining land carbon stocks contributes...
Functional response of U.S. grasslands to the early 21st-century drought Grasslands across the United States play a key role in regional livelihood and national food security. Yet, it is still unclear how this important resource will...
Biotic and Human Vulnerability to Projected Changes in Ocean Biogeochemistry over the 21st Century Ongoing greenhouse gas emissions can modify climate processes and induce shifts in ocean temperature, pH, oxygen concentration, and productivity, which in turn ...
Rethinking wedges Stabilizing CO2 emissions at current levels for fifty years is not consistent with either an atmospheric CO2 concentration below 500 ppm or global temperature i...
The impact of climate change on the structure of Pleistocene food webs across the mammoth steppe Species interactions form food webs, impacting community structure and, potentially, ecological dynamics. It is likely that global climatic perturbations that o...
