Climate change hotspots in the United States
We use a multi-model, multi-scenario climate model ensemble to identify climate change hotspots in the continental United States. Our ensemble consists of the ...
A dispersal-induced paradox: synchrony and stability in stochastic metapopulations
Understanding how dispersal influences the dynamics of spatially distributed populations is a major priority of both basic and applied ecologists. Two ...
Biodiversity effects on ecosystem functioning change along environmental stress gradients
Positive relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning has been observed in many studies, but how this relationship is affected by environmental ...
Citizen Involvement in the U.S. Endangered Species Act
Data on listed species refute critiques of citizen involvement in the U.S. Endangered Species Act.
Climate change and disruptions to global fire activity
Future disruptions to fire activity will threaten ecosystems and human well-being throughout the world, yet there are few fire projections at global scales and ...
Ancient Biomolecules from Deep Ice Cores Reveal a Forested Southern Greenland
It is difficult to obtain fossil data from the 10% of Earth’s terrestrial surface that is covered by thick glaciers and ice sheets, and hence, knowledge of the ...
Climate change and the invasion of California by grasses
Over the next century, changes in the global climate are expected to have major consequences for plant communities, possibly including the exacerbation of ...
Annual plants change in size over a century of observations
Abstract Studies have documented changes in animal body size over the last century, but very little is known about changes in plant sizes, even though reduced ...
Climate change, income and happiness: An empirical study for Barcelona
The present article builds upon the results of an empirical study exploring key factors which determine life satisfaction in Barcelona. Based on a sample of ...
Classification of Climate Change-Induced Stresses on Biological Diversity
Conservation actions need to account for and be adapted to address changes that will occur under global climate change. The identification of stresses on ...
Climate change and the world economy: short-run determinants of atmospheric CO2
Volcanic eruptions, the El Nin ̃ o Southern oscillation (ENSO), world population, and the world economy are the four variables usually discussed as influencing ...
Declining annual streamflow distributions in the Pacific Northwest United States, 1948–2006
Much of the discussion on climate change and water in the western United States centers on decreased snowpack and earlier spring runoff. Although increasing ...
Climate commitment in an uncertain world
Climate commitment—the warming that would still occur given no further human influence—is a fundamental metric for both science and policy. It informs us of ...
Changes in winter precipitation extremes for the western United States under a warmer climate as simulated by regional climate models
We find a consistent and statistically significant increase in the intensity of future extreme winter precipitation events over the western United States, as ...
Assessing potential climate change effects on vegetation using a linked model approach
We developed a process that links the mechanistic power of dynamic global vegetation models with the detailed vegetation dynamics of state-and-transition ...
Biodiversity management in the face of climate change: A review of 22 years of recommendations
Climate change creates new challenges for biodiversity conservation. Species ranges and ecological dynamics are already responding to recent climate shifts, ...
Biophysical and Biogeochemical Responses to Climate Change Depend on Dispersal and Migration
Different species, populations, and individuals disperse and migrate at different rates. The rate of movement that occurs in response to changes in climate, ...
Atlantic hurricanes and climate over the past 1,500 years
Atlantic tropical cyclone activity, as measured by annual storm counts, reached anomalous levels over the past decade1. The short nature of the historical ...
Coupling snowpack and groundwater dynamics to interpret historical streamflow trends in the western United States
A key challenge for resource and land managers is predicting the consequences of climate warming on streamflow and water resources. During the last century in ...
Can forest management be used to sustain water-based ecosystem services in the face of climate change?
Forested watersheds, an important provider of ecosystems services related to water supply, can have their structure, function, and resulting streamflow ...
Ecological extinction and evolution in the brave new ocean
The great mass extinctions of the fossil record were a major creative force that provided entirely new kinds of opportunities for the subsequent explosive ...
Climate Change Challenges and Opportunities for Global Health
Editorial: Journal of the American Medical Association. Health is inextricably linked to climate change. It is important for clinicians to understand this ...
Climate Change Puts Children in Jeopardy
From the text: Experts several years ago sounded the alarm on climate change’s potential harm to human health in the years to come. But the impact on a ...
BOTANY AND A CHANGING WORLD: INTRODUCTION TO THE SPECIAL ISSUE ON GLOBAL BIOLOGICAL CHANGE
The impacts of global change have heightened the need to understand how organisms respond to and influence these changes. Can we forecast how change at the ...
CARBON CYCLE : Fertilizing change
Carbon cycle–climate feedbacks are expected to diminish the size of the terrestrial carbon sink over the next century. Model simulations suggest that nitrogen ...
A general integrative model for scaling plant growth, carbon flux, and functional trait spectra
Linking functional traits to plant growth is critical for scaling attributes of organisms to the dynamics of ecosystems (1,2) and for understanding how ...
Biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality
Biodiversity loss can affect ecosystem functions and services1–4. Individual ecosystem functions generally show a positive asymptotic relationship with ...
Attributing physical and biological impacts to anthropogenic climate change
Significant changes in physical and biological systems are occurring on all continents and in most oceans, with a concentration of available data in Europe and ...
Carbon respiration from subsurface peat accelerated by climate warming in the subarctic
Among the largest uncertainties in current projections of future climate is the feedback between the terrestrial carbon cycle and climate1. Northern peatlands ...
Call for a climate culture shift
A new book describes the rapid reshaping of human priorities needed to save the planet from global warming. Some of that change is already under way at the ...
