Title Description
Water in the Balance Satellite data may enable improved management of regional groundwater reserves. VOL 340 SCIENCE
Drought in the United States: Causes and Issues for Congress Drought is a natural hazard with often significant societal, economic, and environmental consequences. Public policy issues related to drought range from how to...
Achievable future conditions as a framework for guiding forest conservation and management We contend that traditional approaches to forest conservation and management will be inadequate given the predicted scale of social-economic and biophysical cha...
Bias in the attribution of forest carbon sinks A substantial fraction of the terrestrial carbon sink, past and present, may be incorrectly attributed to environmental change rather than changes in forest man...
Carbon Market Lessons and Global Policy Outlook Summary: Ongoing work on linking markets and mixing policies builds on successes and failures in pricing and trading carbon. Closing sentence, 1st paragraph: Ar...
Marine Taxa Track Local Climate Velocities Organisms are expected to adapt or move in response to climate change, but observed distribution shifts span a wide range of directions and rates. Explanations...
Conifer regeneration following stand-replacing wildfire varies along an elevation gradient in a ponderosa pine forest, Oregon, USA Climate change is expected to increase disturbances such as stand-replacing wildfire in many ecosystems, which have the potential to drive rapid turnover in eco...
Climate change-associated tree mortality increases without decreasing water availability Here, we reveal temporally increasing tree mortality across all study species over the last three decades in the central boreal forests of Canada, where long-te...
Diffusion into new markets: evolving customer segments in the solar photovoltaics market The US residential solar market is growing quickly, and as solar adoption diffuses into new populations, later adopters may differ significantly from earlier on...
Global Cooling by Grassland Soils of the Geological Past and Near Future Keywords grass, mammal, coevolution, paleosol, paleoclimate, carbon sequestration, albedo Abstract Major innovations in the evolution of vegetation such as t...
Biodiversity Risks from Fossil Fuel Extraction The overlapping of biodiverse areas and fossil fuel reserves indicates high-risk regions.
Tree mortality predicted from drought-induced vascular damage The projected responses of forest ecosystems to warming and drying associated with twenty-first-century climate change vary widely from resiliency to widespread...
METABOLISM AS A CURRENCY AND CONSTRAINT IN ECOLOGY Temperature dependence of trophic interactions are driven by asymmetry of species responses and foraging strategy We test for the existence of asymmetries in consumer–resource thermal responses by analy- sing an extensive database on thermal response curves of ecological ...
Managing Forests and Fire in Changing Climates With projected climate change, we expect to face much more forest fi re in the coming decades. Policymakers are challenged not to categorize all fires as de...
Drought, disease, defoliation and death: forest pathogens as agents of past vegetation change The temperate and boreal forests of Europe and North America have been subject to repeated pathogen (fungal disease and phytophagus insect) outbreaks over the l...
Plant-Pollinator Interactions over 120 Years: Loss of Species, Co-Occurrence, and Function Using historic data sets, we quantified the degree to which global change over 120 years disrupted plant-pollinator interactions in a temperate forest understor...
From sink to source: Regional variation in U.S. forest carbon futures The sequestration of atmospheric carbon (C) in forests has partially offset C emissions in the United States (US) and might reduce overall costs of achieving em...
Seasonal weather patterns drive population vital rates and persistence in a stream fish Here, we investigated effects of seasonal air temperature and precipitation (fall, winter, and spring) on survival and recruitment of brook trout (Salvelinus fo...
Nonrandom, diversifying processes are disproportionately strong in the smallest size classes of a tropical forest Here, we use one of the world’s longest-running, plot-based forest dynamics projects to compare nonrandom outcomes across stage classes. We considered a cohor...
Hell and High Water: PracticeRelevant Adaptation Science Adaptation requires science that analyzes decisions, identifies vulnerabilities, improves foresight, and develops options
