Title Description
The global volume and distribution of modern groundwater Groundwater is important for energy and food security, human health and ecosystems. The time since groundwater was recharged—or groundwater age—can be impor...
Newly discovered landscape traps produce regime shifts in wet forests We describe the “landscape trap” concept, whereby entire landscapes are shifted into, and then maintained (trapped) in, a highly compromised structural and ...
Genealogy of nature conservation: a political perspective Modern nature conservation is a product of post-Enlightenment modernity; I explore the heterogeneity of its conceptual and ideological background. The 19th cent...

Managing the whole landscape: historical, hybrid, and novel ecosystems The reality confronting ecosystem managers today is one of heterogeneous, rapidly transforming landscapes, particularly in the areas more affected by urban and ...
The Three Horsemen of Riches: Plague, War, and Urbanization in Early Modern Europe How did Europe escape the “Iron Law of Wages?” We construct a simple Malthusian model with two sectors and multiple steady states, and use it to explain why...
Global imprint of climate change on marine life Past meta-analyses of the response of marine organisms to climate change have examined a limited range of locations1,2, taxonomic groups2–4 and/or biological ...
How does crop residue removal affect soil organic carbon and yield? A hierarchical analysis of management and environmental factors Our results suggest that crop residue removal is not recommended in tropical soils, particularly in coarse-textured ones, and in SOC-depleted soils in temperate...
Dispersal will limit ability of mammals to track climate change in the Western Hemisphere As they have in response to past climatic changes, many species will shift their distributions in response to modern climate change. However, due to the unprece...
A global synthesis reveals biodiversity loss as a major driver of ecosystem change Evidence is mounting that extinctions are altering key processes important to the productivity and sustainability of Earth’s ecosystems (1–4). Further speci...
Uncertainty in the response of transpiration to CO2 and implications for climate change While terrestrial precipitation is a societally highly relevant climate variable, there is little consensus among climate models about its projected 21st centur...
Negative density-dependent dispersal in the American black bear (Ursus americanus) revealed by noninvasive sampling and genotyping Although the dispersal of animals is influenced by a variety of factors, few studies have used a condition-dependent approach to assess it. The mechanisms under...
How life shaped Earth Earth is much more complex than all the other solar system objects that we know. Thanks to its rich and diverse geology, our planet can offer habitats to a wide...
Global water resources affected by human interventions and climate change Humans directly change the dynamics of the water cycle through dams constructed for water storage, and through water withdrawals for industrial, agricultural, o...
Projections of Future Drought in the Continental United States and Mexico Using the Palmer drought severity index, the ability of 19 state-of-the-art climate models to reproduce observed statistics of drought over North America is ex...
Projections of Future Drought in the Continental United States and Mexico Using the Palmer drought severity index, the ability of 19 state-of-the-art climate models to reproduce ob- served statistics of drought over North America is e...
Gus Speth: Communicating environmental risks in an age of disinformation Once described as "the consummate environmental insider," Gus Speth, co-founder of the Natural Resources Defense Council, says that green organizations, politic...
Global change and conservation triage on National Wildlife Refuges National Wildlife Refuges (NWRs) in the United States play an important role in the adaptation of social-ecological systems to climate change, land-use change,...
Re-evaluation of forest biomass carbon stocks and lessons from the world’s most carbon-dense forests From analysis of published global site biomass data (n = 136) from primary forests, we discovered (i) the world’s highest known total biomass carbon density (...
Molecular study of worldwide distribution and diversity of soil animals The global distribution of soil animals and the relationship of below-ground biodiversity to above-ground biodiversity are not well understood. We examined 17,5...
