Modelling Interactions between Climate and Global Vegetation in response to Climate Change [PDF]
Climate change associated with increasing concentrations of the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide(CO2), is expected to lead to an increase in global mean temperature of between 1 and 3.5 deg C by the end of the 21st century, with regional changes in ...

Modeling of riparian vegetation dynamics and its application to sand-bed river [PDF]
A riparian vegetation dynamics model was proposed to consider the mutual influence of hydro-morphology and vegetation dynamics in a sand-bed river. The simulation model consists of four sub-models: river flow and sediment transport, recruitment, growth ...

Assessing 20th century climate-vegetation feedbacks of land-use change and natural vegetation dynamics in a fully coupled vegetation-climate model [PDF]
This study describes the coupling of the dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM), Lund–Potsdam–Jena Model for managed land (LPJmL), with the general circulation model (GCM), Simplified Parameterizations primitivE Equation DYnamics model (SPEEDY), to study

Steep topography buffers threatened gymnosperm species against anthropogenic pressures in China
China is one of the most species‐rich countries in the world, harboring many rare gymnosperms. Following recent human‐led loss of forests, China is now experiencing increases in forest cover resulting from efforts of reforestation schemes.

The role of climate, forest fires and human population size in Holocene vegetation dynamics in Fennoscandia [PDF]
Questions: We investigated the changing role of climate, forest fires and human population size in the broad-scale compositional changes in Holocene vegetation dynamics before and after the onset of farming in Sweden (at 6,000 cal yr BP) and in Finland ...

Stochastic soil water dynamics of phreatophyte vegetation with dimorphic root systems [PDF]
As the direct uptake of deep groundwater by vegetation may be essential in semiarid regions, we incorporated this process in stochastic root zone water balance models.

Satellite observations since the early 1980s have revealed a trend of ‘Earth greening’ across global terrestrial ecosystems. Dryland vegetation is more sensitive to climate change and human activities.
