Resist!: Sustaining forest carbon sequestration and wood production after insect disturbance
Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.Disturbances from insect pests threaten ecologically and economically important goods and services supplied by forests, including wood production and carbon sequestration. We highlight the factors that influence these services’ resistance, a term quantifying the initial response to disturbance.

Dynamic identification of snow phenology in the Northern Hemisphere [PDF]
The CryosphereSnow phenology characterizes the cyclical changes in snow and has become an important indicator of climate change in recent decades. Changes in snow phenology can significantly impact climate and hydrological conditions.

Quantifying golf course water use efficiency using three water balance models of varying complexity
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Abstract Background Three water balance models were used to quantify water use efficiency on 71 golf courses in the United States. The golf courses were separated into five geographic regions. Methods The United States Golf Association (USGA), Tipping‐Bucket (TB), and Agro‐IBIS (AG) water balance models were used to estimate golf course water ...

Integrative Conservation, EarlyView.Restoration of monoculture in protected and marginal areas can be organized into two phases (1) identification and prioritization of restoration sites based on remote sensing or field survey then assessing degradation level, and (2) implementation of appropriate restoration interventions.

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.Abstract Agroecosystems, which include row crops, pasture, and grass and shrub grazing lands, are sensitive to changes in management, weather, and genetics. To better understand how these systems are responding to changes, we need to improve monitoring and modeling carbon and water dynamics.

Homogeneity assessment of phenological records from the Swiss Phenology Network
International Journal of Biometeorology, 2019 Phenological data have become increasingly important as indicators of long-term climate change. Consequently, long-term homogeneity of the records is an important aspect. In this paper, we apply a breakpoint detection algorithm to the phenological series from the Swiss Phenology Network (SPN).

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract In the context of global change, marine organisms are subjected not only to gradual changes in abiotic parameters, but also to an increasing number of extreme events, such as heatwaves. However, we still know little about the influence of heatwaves on the structure of marine communities, and experimental studies are needed to test the impact ...
