Simulating global surface reflectance data for imaging spectroscopy spaceborne missions: LPJ-PROSAIL
Future spaceborne imaging spectroscopy missions will revolutionize remote sensing: Here we simulate the first dynamic globally-gridded...
Global distribution and climate sensitivity of the tropical montane forest nitrogen cycle
We identify a large and potentially vulnerable pool of soil nitrogen in these tropical systems as the global climate continues to warm In...
Climate mitigation potential of cyanobacteria-fertilized bioenergy crops in semi-arid cropland.
Strap yourselves in for a lot of science in this one! There is a great need to rethink our current energy paradigms in order to harmonize...
Drivers of forest change in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem
A nuanced examination of high elevation forests from the byproduct of three consecutive years of dendro-ecological workshops in the...
Large contribution of woody plant expansion to recent greening of the Northern Great Plains
Linking two consequential vegetative changes across one of the last intact grasslands on Earth. According to the World Wild Fund for...
Sustaining social-ecological systems in rangelands of the Northern Great Plains
Toward an urgent yet deliberate conservation strategy. Contemporary conservation of ecosystems is often tackled using what profound...
Negative associations between nitrogen fixing trees and tropical forest biomass accumulation
Plant functional traits are thought to drive biomass production and biogeochemical cycling in tropical forests. Here, we find that local...
The greening of the Northern Great Plains and its biogeochemical precursors
Over a century of CO2 increases has caused plants in the Northern Great Plains to become increasingly water-use efficient and more...
Symbiotic N fixation is sufficient to support net biomass accumulation in a tropical forest
Large abundances and high fixation rates of N-fixing trees prove theoretically sufficient to support 30 years of biomass accumulation....
Landscape drivers of recent fire activity (2001-2017) in south-central Chile
Homogeneity and fire-prone forest plantations promote larger fires the the South American West. In the past few decades, summertime in...
