Spatial heterogeneity and nonlinear climatic responses of net ecosystem productivity across China

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing
Terrestrial ecosystems are pivotal in regulating atmospheric CO₂ concentrations, yet their carbon sequestration capacity exhibits strong spatial heterogeneity due to complex climate–ecosystem interactions.

Aboveground net primary productivity not CO2 exchange remain stable under three timing of extreme drought in a semi-arid steppe.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Precipitation patterns are expected to change in the semi-arid region within the next decades, with projected increasing in extreme drought events. Meanwhile, the timing of extreme drought also shows great uncertainty, suggesting that the timing of ...

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Climatic versus biotic constraints on carbon and water fluxes in seasonally drought-affected ponderosa pine ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We investigated the relative importance of climatic versus biotic controls on gross primary production (GPP) and water vapor fluxes in seasonally drought-affected ponderosa pine forests. The study was conducted in young (YS), mature (MS), and old stands (

Expectations and Reality: The Lived Experiences of Australians With Psychosocial Disability Within the NDIS

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While Australia's National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) was founded on principles of choice and control, for people with significant mental health challenges (what the NDIS calls ‘psychosocial disability’) these ideals often remain elusive. Support systems continue to be fractured and in the context of ongoing policy reforms, it is vital

Assessing the Carbon Budget Dynamics of Terrestrial Ecosystems in the Amur River Basin

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In the context of climate change, understanding the carbon cycle of terrestrial ecosystem is important for projecting the future climate. Toward this end, it is essential to determine the roles of different terrestrial ecosystems as either carbon sources

Forest productivity mitigates human disturbance effects on late-seral prey exposed to apparent competitors and predators

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Primary production can determine the outcome of management actions on ecosystem properties, thereby defining sustainable management. Yet human agencies commonly overlook spatio-temporal variations in productivity by recommending fixed resource extraction
