Post-drought decline of the Amazon carbon sink [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Amazon forests have experienced frequent and severe droughts in the past two decades. However, little is known about the large-scale legacy of droughts on carbon stocks and dynamics of forests.

Understanding the effects of patch‐burn grazing management on aboveground grassland invertebrate biodiversity

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Landscape heterogeneity is widely recognized as a driver of biodiversity, yet its consequences for above‐ground, foliage‐dwelling insect communities under active grassland management remain underexplored. Patch‐burn grazing (PBG), which rotates fire across patches within a grazed landscape, is designed to promote spatial and temporal heterogeneity by ...

The influence of climate and hydrological variables on opposite anomaly in active-layer thickness between Eurasian and North American watersheds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study not only examined the spatiotemporal variations of active-layer thickness (ALT) in permafrost regions during 1948-2006 over the terrestrial Arctic regions experiencing climate changes, but also identified the associated drivers based on ...

Using a social‐ecological macrosystems framework to understand how human activities alter ecological synchrony

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Leveraging machine learning and citizen science data to describe flowering phenology across South Africa

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Recent shifts in flowering times are an index of, and a response to, human driven climate change. However, most information on these flowering changes is heavily skewed to the northern hemisphere. This imbalance limits our understanding of how climate change is affecting ecosystems, including the mismatches of flowering times between species, increased

A satellite-based ice fraction record for small water bodies of the Arctic Coastal Plain (2017 to 2023) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Ice cover of water bodies in the northern high latitudes (NHL) is highly sensitive to the changing climate, and its dynamics exert substantial impacts on the NHL ecosystems, hydrological processes, and the carbon cycle. Yet, operational quantification of

Assessing the Performance of Methods for Monitoring Ice Phenology of the World’s Largest High Arctic Lake Using High-Density Time Series Analysis of Sentinel-1 Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Lake ice is a dominant component of Canada’s landscape and can act as an indicator for how freshwater aquatic ecosystems are changing with warming climates.

Solar farms can mitigate negative impacts of whiplash weather on plant communities in a dryland ecosystem

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Utility‐scale solar energy (USSE) development generates novel questions regarding coupling clean energy production with terrestrial ecosystem services (e.g., forage production, pollinator support). We found that a USSE array sited in a fallowed cropland maintained a reseeded native plant community even a decade post‐restoration and that the array ...

Study on the Phenological Changes of Snow and Lake Ice in Qinghai Lake Basin based on MODIS Data

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang
Phenological changes are of great significance to the study of climate response and ecological environment.Based on the MODIS V6 snow product and reflectivity product in the past 20 years, the snow and lake ice phenology in the Qinghai Lake Basin were ...
