Local and Remote Impacts of Regional Irrigation on Near‐Surface Temperature
Abstract Irrigation is a major human intervention in the global land‐atmosphere system. However, increasing climate variability and associated regional water scarcity may lead to abrupt reductions in irrigation. In this study, we use the Community Earth System Model to investigate the global near‐surface air temperature response to irrigation cessation

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

ABSTRACT Grassland response to changes in water availability is closely tied to the traits of the plant community. Plants can adopt either moderate and efficient (conservative) or rapid and demanding (acquisitive) resource use strategies. These strategies combined with the plant interactions with microbes, such as arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF ...
