Sensitivity of Vegetation Productivity to Extreme Droughts across the Yunnan Plateau, China
Atmosphere, 2023 Extreme drought has negative impacts on the health of vegetation and the stability of ecosystems. In this study, the CASA model was employed to estimate the net primary productivity of vegetation over the Yunnan Plateau.

Divergent responses of ecosystem water use efficiency to drought timing over Northern Eurasia
Environmental Research Letters, 2021 Warming has resulted in increases in frequency, intensity and/or duration of droughts in most land regions over the globe. Nevertheless, knowledge on how ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) responds to extreme drought stress and whether the responses ...

Responses of seasonal indicators to extreme droughts in southwest China [PDF]
, 2020 Significant impact of extreme droughts on human society and ecosystem has occurred in many places of the world, for example, Southwest China (SWC). Considerable research concentrated on analyzing causes and effects of droughts in SWC, but few studies ...

Human and natural resource exposure to extreme drought at 1.0 °C–4.0 °C warming levels
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 Extreme drought occurs on every continent, negatively impacting natural systems and the built environment. Realized and anticipated future warming affects global hydrology, influencing the severity and frequency of both extreme precipitation events and ...

Satellite evidence of canopy-height dependence of forest drought resistance in southwestern China
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 The frequency and intensity of drought events are increasing with warming climate, which has resulted in worldwide forest mortality. Previous studies have reached a general consensus on the size-dependency of forest resistance to drought, but further ...

Belowground niche partitioning is maintained under extreme drought
Ecology, 2023 AbstractBelowground niche partitioning presents a key mechanism for maintaining species coexistence and diversity. Its importance is currently reinforced by climate change that alters soil hydrological conditions. However, experimental tests examining the magnitude of its change under climate change are scarce. We combined measurements of oxygen stable

Vegetation response to extreme climate events on the Mongolian Plateau from 2000 to 2010 [PDF]
, 2013 Climate change has led to more frequent extreme winters (aka, dzud) and summer droughts on the Mongolian Plateau during the last decade. Among these events, the 2000–2002 combined summer drought–dzud and 2010 dzud were the most severe on vegetation.
