MODERATE SEVERITY DISTURBANCE HAS SIMILAR EFFECTS ON THE PRODUCTION OF THREE FORESTS NESTED WITHIN THE UPPER GREAT LAKES LANDSCAPE [PDF]

, 2017
Moderate severity disturbances, which only kill a subset of canopy trees (e.g., via insects, pathogens, and windthrow), are increasingly widespread, and can alter forest structure and production.

Amplifying effects of multiyear La Niña on phytoplankton biomass in the tropical Pacific

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Traditional views suggest that overall phytoplankton biomass in the tropical Pacific should be proportional to La Niña intensity because of enhanced nutrient supplies from equatorial upwelling associated with La Niña intensity. Here, composite analysis of satellite‐derived chlorophyll a (Chl a, a proxy for biomass) data across five multiyear ...

Continental scale variability in ecosystem processes: Models, data, and the role of disturbance [PDF]

, 1997
Management of ecosystems at large regional or continental scales and determination of the vulnerability of ecosystems to large-scale changes in climate or atmospheric chemistry require understanding how ecosystem processes are governed at large spatial ...

Persistence and potential of soil organic carbon in nature‐based climate solutions: A review of managed disturbances

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 811-830, May 2026.
Implementing nature‐based climate solutions is important for mitigating climate change, which is a global issue, but requires local adjustments in management practices. Using the association between soil carbon and minerals as a proxy for carbon persistence, we evaluated the effect of different management regimes on soil carbon sequestration and loss ...

Senescent trees stabilize aboveground wood net primary production immediately after disturbance [PDF]

, 2020
In the United States, forests sequester 17% of national carbon (C) emissions annually (UGCRP, 2018), however shifting forest disturbances threaten the stability of this essential C sink.

ProCarbon‐Soil: A dynamic model for improved model‐data compatibility in carbon farming

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Carbon farming is a nature‐based solution to capture atmospheric CO2 and store it as soil organic carbon (SOC). Carbon farming trading schemes (CFTS) incentivize farmers to adopt these practices. Integral to CFTS is forecasting SOC changes, typically achieved using traditional multicompartmental soil carbon models (mSCM), and monitoring total ...

The large scale impact of offshore wind farm structures on pelagic primary productivity in the southern North Sea

, 2018
The increasing demand for renewable energy is projected to result in a 40-fold increase in offshore wind electricity in the European Union by 2030. Despite a great number of local impact studies for selected marine populations, the regional ecosystem ...

Free atmospheric CO2 enrichment increased above ground biomass but did not affect symbiotic N2-fixation and soil carbon dynamics in a mixed deciduous stand in Wales [PDF]

, 2011
Through increases in net primary production (NPP), elevated CO2 is hypothesizes to increase the amount of plant litter entering the soil. The fate of this extra carbon on the forest floor or in mineral soil is currently not clear.

A soil sensing mechanism to reach carbon flux at a country scale

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon reservoir and can be a source or sink of CO2 for the atmosphere, depending on management practices. CO2 emissions from the soil surface (FCO2) are directly related to the biological and physicochemical soil properties. Our objective was to estimate and spatialize the net ecosystem production (NEP) for the

Adverse Effects of Ozone Pollution on Net Primary Productivity in the North China Plain

Geophysical Research Letters
Tropospheric ozone significantly damages vegetation and reduces net primary productivity (NPP). We developed a stable linear NPP response model based on accumulated ozone exposure over a threshold of 40 parts per billion (ppb) (AOT40).
