Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is contributing to vegetation changes that threaten life support systems. Yet, inherent climatic variability and past and present human actions—such as clearing, burning and grazing regimes—also alter vegetation and complicate understanding of vegetation change. Australian ecosystems exemplify such complexity.
