Near‐Term Climate Change Impacts on Kenyan Tree Cover
Abstract Afforestation efforts within tropical landscapes are continuing apace to achieve goals related to climate change mitigation, sustainability and conservation. Outcomes from these efforts are likely to be determined by future changes in climate and disturbance regimes.

Soil Respiration in Semiarid Temperate Grasslands under Various Land Management.
Soil respiration, a major component of the global carbon cycle, is significantly influenced by land management practices. Grasslands are potentially a major sink for carbon, but can also be a source.

Abstract In the C4‐dominated semiarid grasslands of the western Great Plains (Colorado, USA), spring soil moisture (soil volumetric water content, SoilVWC) is thought to be a critical determinant of aboveground net primary production (ANPP) and overall carbon cycling. However, because evidence for this is based on observational studies, we attempted to

Phosphorus effects on global grassland productivity and plant diversity: A meta-analysis
Phosphorus (P) addition can affect ecosystem functions. It plays an important role in the productivity and nutrient cycling of grassland ecosystems. However, the effects of P addition on plant community diversity and productivity remain controversial. We

Abstract Identifying the factors mediating the resilience and invariability of plant communities and their associated ecosystem functions is critical to understand the ecological impacts of climate change. Prior work has explored how classic “community properties” (characterizing a community by species composition) regulate the resilience and ...

Impact of Extreme Weather Events on Aboveground Net Primary Productivity and Sheep Production in the Magellan Region, Southernmost Chilean Patagonia [PDF]
Spatio-temporal patterns of climatic variability have effects on the environmental conditions of a given land territory and consequently determine the evolution of its productive activities. One of the most direct ways to evaluate this relationship is to

Shifts in species composition in water‐limited ecosystems such as temperate prairies during summer droughts can lead to community‐level changes. Our study focuses on linking experimental drought‐induced shifts in species composition with changes in canopy structure and function using remote sensing approaches.
