Near‐Term Climate Change Impacts on Kenyan Tree Cover

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
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.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
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.

Subtle differences in spring soil moisture can substantially influence annual productivity in a semiarid grassland

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.
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

Temperature sensitivity in aboveground net primary productivity in semi-arid grasslands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
2014 Fall.Includes bibliographical references.Although climate models forecast warmer temperatures with a high degree of certainty, precipitation is the primary driver of aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) in most grasslands.

Phosphorus effects on global grassland productivity and plant diversity: A meta-analysis

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
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

Functional properties improve predictions of long‐term productivity invariability but not resistance to drought

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.
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]

open access: yes, 2020
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

Linking Grassland Canopy Structure and Function Responses to Field Experimental Drought Both Seasonally and Interannually

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
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.
