Mapping Delayed Canopy Loss and Durable Fire Refugia for the 2020 Wildfires in Washington State Using Multiple Sensors

open access: yesFire
Fire refugia are unburned and low severity patches within wildfires that contribute heterogeneity that is important to retaining biodiversity and regenerating forest following fire.

Valuing New Hampshire Salt Marshes: An Approach to Measuring Ecosystem Services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
David Burdick presented work a method for estimating the ecosystem services benefits of salt marsh restoration. The approach combines ecological valuation, which uses structural and functional indicators to measure the marshes response to restoration ...

Phylogenetic patterns of diversification across ecological niches in the African tree genus Guibourtia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Adaptive evolution is thought to be a major driver of organism diversification but the link between phenotypic traits and environmental niche remains little documented in tropical trees.

Bringing justice to habitat conservation with Indigenous refugia: potential for planning and management of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. glauca) in New Mexico

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainability
In the face of climate change and associated increases in disturbances, some areas, known as refugia, will remain or become newly habitable for species, while others will be lost.

Exploring the value of Scotland's environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Protection of the environment can be regarded as representing a substantial cost to business. However, it is typically considered from the point of view of effect on company profitability, rather than its relative importance to human kind.

Climate change refugia for the flora and fauna of England [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A variety of evidence suggests that species have, in the past, been able to withstand the effects of climatic change in localised environments known as refugia, where specific environmental conditions acted as a buffer against broader-scale climatic ...

Uncertainty Modelling of Groundwater-Dependent Vegetation

open access: yesLand
Groundwater-dependent vegetation (GDV) is threatened globally by groundwater abstraction. Water resource managers require maps showing its distribution and habitat preferences to make informed decisions on its protection.

Assessing uncertainty in forecasts of refugia for Joshua trees using high‐density distribution data

open access: yesEcosphere
Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia and Yucca jaegeriana) are iconic, foundational species of the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts in North America. Due to their ecosystem importance, long generation times, and low resilience to disturbance, these hybridizing ...

Evaluating signatures of glacial refugia for North Atlantic benthic marine taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A goal of phylogeography is to relate patterns of genetic differentiation to potential historical geographic isolating events. Quaternary glaciations, particularly the one culminating in the Last Glacial Maximum ;21 ka (thousands of years ago), greatly ...
