Dissecting insect responses to climate warming: overwintering and post-diapause performance in the southern green stink bug, Nezara viridula, under simulated climate-change conditions
The effect of simulated climate change on overwintering and postdiapause reproductive performance is studied in Nezara viridula (L.) ...
Call Off the Quest
Over the past 30 years, the climate research community has made valiant efforts to answer the “climate sensitivity” question: What is the long-term equilibrium ...
A westward extension of the warm pool leads to a westward extension of the Walker circulation, drying eastern Africa
Observations and simulations link anthropogenicgreenhouse and aerosol emissions with rapidly increasing Indian Ocean sea surface temperatures (SSTs). Over the ...
Ecological responses to recent climate change
There is now ample evidence of the ecological impacts of recent climate change, from polar terrestrial to tropical marine environments. The responses of both ...
Columbia Water Center White Paper America’s Water Risk: Water Stress and Climate Variability
The emerging awareness of the dependence of business on water has resulted in increasing awareness of the concept of “Water Risk” and the diverse ways in which ...
Conservation VALUE OF ROADLESS AREAS FOR VULNERABLE FISH AND Wildlife Species in the Crown of the Continent Ecosystem, Montana
The Crown of the Continent Ecosystem is one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world and most ecologically intact ecosystem remaining in ...
‘As Earth’s testimonies tell’: wilderness conservation in a changing world
Too often, wilderness conservation ignores a temporal perspective greater than the past 50 years, yet a long-term perspective (centuries to millennia) reveals ...
Animal Versus Wind Dispersal and the Robustness of Tree Species to Deforestation
Studies suggest that populations of different species do not decline equally after habitat loss. However, empirical tests have been confined to fine ...
Carbon sequestration in the U.S. forest sector from 1990 to 2010
From 1990 through 2005, the forest sector (including forests and wood products) sequestered an average 162 Tg C year1 . In 2005, 49% of the total forest sector ...
A new, global, multi-annual (2000–2007) burnt area product at 1 km resolution Vol. 35
This paper reports on the development and validation of a new, global, burnt area product. Burnt areas are reported at a resolution of 1 km for seven fire ...
Animal migration amid shifting patterns of phenology and predation: lessons from a Yellowstone elk herd
Migration is a striking behavioral strategy by which many animals enhance resource acquisition while reducing predation risk. Historically, the demographic ...
Don't Blame the Beetles
Bark beetles have devastated western forests, but that may not mean more severe fires.
Characterizing coal and mineral mines as a regional source of stress to stream fish assemblages
Mining impacts on stream systems have historically been studied over small spatial scales, yet investigations over large areas may be useful for characterizing ...
Challenges of ecological restoration: Lessons from forests in northern Europe
The alarming rate of ecosystem degradation has raised the need for ecological restoration throughout different biomes and continents. North European forests ...
Effect of Risk Aversion on Prioritizing Conservation Projects
Agencies making decisions about what threat mitigation actions to take to save which species frequently face the dilemma of whether to invest in actions with ...
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). ...
Critical slowing down as early warning for the onset of collapse in mutualistic communities
Tipping points are crossed when small changes in external conditions cause abrupt unexpected responses in the current state of a system. In the case of ...
Controls on Annual Forest Carbon Storage: Lessons from the Past and Predictions for the Future
The temperate forests of North America may play an important role in future carbon (C) sequestration strategies. New, multiyear, ecosystem-scale C cycling ...
Conservation threats: biofuel
Biofuels: Europe’s largest conservation charity has launched a campaign to heighten the threat to wildlife habitats and biodiversity from plantations of fuel ...
Carbon debt and carbon sequestration parity in forest bioenergy production
The capacity for forests to aid in climate change mitigation efforts is substantial but will ultimately depend on their management. If forests remain ...
Do alternative energy sources displace fossil fuels?
A fundamental, generally implicit, assumption of the Intergov- ernmental Panel on Climate Change reports and many energy analysts is that each unit of energy ...
Beneficial Biofuels—The Food, Energy, and Environment Trilemma
Exploiting multiple feedstocks, under new policies and accounting rules, to balance biofuel production, food security, and greenhouse-gas reduction.
Can Plants Adapt? New Questions in Climate Change Research
As it becomes increasingly apparent that human activities are partly responsible for global warming, the focus of climate change research is shifting from the ...
A Large-Scale Deforestation Experiment: Effects of Patch Area and Isolation on Amazon Birds
As compared with extensive contiguous areas, small isolated habitat patches lack many species. Some species disappear after isolation; others are rarely found ...
Climatic extremes improve predictions of spatial patterns of tree species
Understanding niche evolution, dynamics, and the response of species to climate change requires knowledge of the determinants of the environmental niche and ...
Are there basic physical constraints on future anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide?
Here, it is shown both theoretically and observationally how the evolution of the human system can be considered from a surprisingly simple thermodynamic ...
Early warning signals of extinction in deteriorating environments
During the decline to extinction, animal populations may present dynamical phenomena not exhibited by robust populations (1,2). Some of these phenomena, such ...
Non-equilibrium succession dynamics indicate continued northern migration of lodgepole pine
This study provides evidence of range expansion under current climatic conditions of an indigenous species with strong ecosystem effects. Surveys of stands ...
Another reason for concern: regional and global impacts on ecosystems for different levels of climate change
Between 1􏲒C and 2􏲒C increases in global mean temperatures most species, ecosystems and landscapes will be impacted and adaptive capacity will become limited. ...
A long-term association between global temperature and biodiversity, origination and extinction in the fossil record
We analysed the fossil record for the last 520 Myr against estimates of low latitude sea surface temperature for the same period. We found that global ...
