Vegetation dynamics and dynamic vegetation science* [PDF]

Acta Botanica Neerlandica, 1996
his contribution presents a review of the development of the study of vegetation dynamics since 1979, in the framework of a jubilee meeting on progress in the study of vegetation. However, an exhaustive review is both impossible and unnecessary.

Modeling of riparian vegetation dynamics and its application to sand-bed river [PDF]

, 2020
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 ...

Late Holocene climate and land-use history in the Mongolian Altai Mountains: Combined evidence from palynological, macro-charcoal and tree-ring analyses

Trees, Forests and People, 2021
The Mongolian Altai is an ecologically sensitive region in Central Asia where changes in climate and anthropogenic activities have a strong impact on the forest-steppe vegetation.

Interactive impacts of fire and vegetation dynamics on global carbon and water budget using Community Land Model version 4.5 [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development, 2019
Fire plays an important role in terrestrial ecosystems. The burning of biomass affects carbon and water fluxes and vegetation distribution. To understand the effect of interactive processes of fire and ecological succession on surface carbon and water ...

The importance of interactions between snow, permafrost and vegetation dynamics in affecting terrestrial carbon balance in circumpolar regions

Environmental Research Letters, 2023
Permafrost dynamics can drastically affect vegetation and soil carbon dynamics in northern high latitudes. Vegetation has significant influences on the energy balance of soil surface by impacting the short-wave radiation, long-wave radiation and surface ...

Steep topography buffers threatened gymnosperm species against anthropogenic pressures in China

Ecology and Evolution, 2020
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]

, 2018
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 ...

Climate Variations vs. Human Activities: Distinguishing the Relative Roles on Vegetation Dynamics in the Three Karst Provinces of Southwest China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Vegetation in karst areas is crucial for maintaining fragile local ecosystems, driven by climate change and human activities. Southwest China contains the largest continuous karst zone in the world and its vegetation dynamics are more sensitive to ...

The trend shift caused by ecological restoration accelerates the vegetation greening of China’s drylands since the 1980s

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
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.

Regional Patterns of Vegetation Dynamics and Their Sensitivity to Climate Variability in the Yangtze River Basin

Remote Sensing, 2022
To better understand the mechanisms of the hydro-ecological cycle in the changing environments of the Yangtze River Basin (YZRB), it is valuable to investigate vegetation dynamics and their response to climate change.
