Noise-induced transitions and shifts in a climate–vegetation feedback model [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Motivated by the extremely important role of the Earth’s vegetation dynamics in climate changes, we study the stochastic variability of a simple climate–vegetation system.

Treeless vegetation of the Australian Alps [PDF]
, 2013 Based on 1222 floristic quadrat samples, 56 plant communities were identified in treeless vegetation in the Australian Alps of south-eastern Australia. (c. 35º 30´–38ºS, 146°–149°E). The study encompassed vegetation from above the upper limit of trees on

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Wetlands constitute Earth's largest natural methane (CH4) source, yet projections of their climate feedback remain uncertain due to poorly constrained temperature sensitivity (Q10‐CH4) of microbial methanogenesis. While water table dynamics have been demonstrated to regulate wetland methanogenesis by altering key soil conditions such as ...

Identifying environmental controls on vegetation greenness phenology through model–data integration [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2014 Existing dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) have a limited ability in reproducing phenology and decadal dynamics of vegetation greenness as observed by satellites.

Iron‐Mediated Release of Aged Dissolved Organic Carbon From Waterlogged Peatland Under Warming
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study conducts a five‐year in situ warming experiment in high‐altitude peatlands to examine dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release. The study shows that warming promotes the release of plant‐derived modern DOC in drained peatlands, but amplifies aquatic export of century‐old DOC from waterlogged peatlands via Fe‐mediated DOC mobilization—a ...

Auto‐Downregulation of the Florigen FT Production Prevents Precocious Flowering in Plants
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that the leaf vein‐expressed FD complexes with the florigen FT to bind DNA motifs in FT promoter, which antagonizes CONSTANS‐mediated FT activation to feedback down‐regulate FT expression. This prevents an excessive induction of FT expression by inductive photoperiods, thereby precluding precocious transition to flowering in ...

The Mind From Within: Visceral Roots of Human Cognition
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The physiological activity of visceral organs, such as the heart, the lungs, and the gut, is surprisingly linked to many sophisticated mental operations, such as remembering the past, being aware of ourselves, making choices, and forging social bonds.

Space-time modeling of soil moisture: Stochastic rainfall forcing with heterogeneous vegetation [PDF]
, 2006 The present paper complements that of Isham et al. (2005), who introduced a space-time soil moisture model driven by stochastic space-time rainfall forcing with homogeneous vegetation and in the absence of topographical landscape effects.
