Rapid climate change in the Arctic is altering biological communities and their subsequent effects on ecosystem functioning. For example, warming‐induced shrub expansion accelerates biogeochemical cycles in part by increasing high‐quality litter inputs.

Simulations of snow distribution and hydrology in a mountain basin [PDF]
We applied a version of the Regional Hydro‐Ecologic Simulation System (RHESSys) that implements snow redistribution, elevation partitioning, and wind‐driven sublimation to Loch Vale Watershed (LVWS), an alpine‐subalpine Rocky Mountain catchment where ...

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

Abstract The consequences of climate change are becoming more severe and widespread, highlighting the growing need to understand and address the emotional dimensions of the climate crisis. Although research on climate emotions has grown substantially over the past decade, empirical work on how people are coping with climate emotions is very limited ...

Utilization of remote sensing in Alaska permafrost studies [PDF]
Permafrost related features such as: aufeis, tundra, thaw lakes and subsurface ice features were studied. LANDSAT imagery was used to measure the extent and distribution of aufeis in Arctic Slope rivers over a period of 7 years.

Abstract Estimating subsurface soil moisture remains challenging due to limited in situ observations and the complexity of soil water dynamics. Although surface soil moisture can be retrieved from satellites with high accuracy, deeper layers are not directly observable. Traditional physics‐based models that predict subsurface soil moisture require site‐
