TERN, Australia’s land observatory: addressing the global challenge of forecasting ecosystem responses to climate variability and change

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
The global challenge of understanding and forecasting ecosystem responses to climate extremes and climate change is addressed in this review of research enabled through environmental research infrastructure (RI) provided by Australia’s Terrestrial ...

Microbial-Mediated Plant Growth Promotion and Pest Suppression Varies Under Climate Change

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Climate change is altering the dynamics of crop pests and diseases resulting in reduced crop yields. Using beneficial soil bacterial to increase crop health is a quickly developing area in sustainable agriculture, but it is unknown if climate change or ...

Small-Scale Habitat Conditions Are More Important Than Site Context for Influencing Pollinator Visitation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The ability of insects to persist in urban greenspace depends on their ability to usefully interact with available plant resources. Greenspace design influences plant–insect interactions by: (1) limiting the plant-species pool available for interaction ...

The Efficiency of Plant Defense: Aphid Pest Pressure Does Not Alter Production of Food Rewards by Okra Plants in Ant Presence

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Pearl bodies are produced by some plant species as food reward for ants and in exchange, ants defend these plants against insect pests. Sap-sucking pests such as aphids also excrete honeydew as food reward for ants, leading to potential conflict where ...

Evapotranspiration and water use efficiency in relation to climate and canopy nitrogen in U.S. forests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Understanding relations among forest carbon (C) uptake and water use is critical for predicting forest-climate interactions. Although the basic properties of tree-water relations have long been known, our understanding of broader-scale patterns is ...

Interactions between carbon and nitrogen dynamics in estimating net primary productivity for potential vegetation in North America [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We use the terrestrial ecosystem model (TEM), a process-based model, to investigate how interactions between carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) dynamics affect predictions of net primary productivity (NPP) for potential vegetation in North America. Data on pool

The effects of CO2, climate and land-use on terrestrial carbon balance, 1920-1992: An analysis with four process-based ecosystem models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The concurrent effects of increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration, climate variability, and cropland establishment and abandonment on terrestrial carbon storage between 1920 and 1992 were assessed using a standard simulation protocol with four process ...

Forest specialist species in the urban landscape: Do different levels of urbanization affect the movements of Forest Red-tailed Black Cockatoos (Calyptorhynchus banksii naso)?

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2022
Anthropogenic landscape modification which leads to the displacement of species, is arguably one of the most profound impacts on animal movement globally.

Development of Methodology for Vulnerability Assessment of Chemical Accident in Terrestrial Ecosystem: (2) Focusing on the Herbs

open access: yes대한환경공학회지, 2020
Objective:As the industry rapidly develops in modern society, the use of chemicals increases and people and various organism living in terrestrial environments are exposed to these chemicals in large quantities. Chemical accidents frequently occur around

Potential net primary productivity in South America: application of a global model [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
We use a mechanistically based ecosystem simulation model to describe and analyze the spatial and temporal patterns of terrestrial net primary productivity (NPP) in South America.
