Impacts of Future Climate and Land Use/Cover Changes on Water-Related Ecosystem Services in Changbai Mountains, Northeast China

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Sustaining ecosystem services in alpine regions is a pressing global challenge given future accelerating environmental changes. Understanding how future climate change and land use/cover change (LUCC) drive ecosystem service will be important in this ...

Analysis of Water Yield Changes from 1981 to 2018 Using an Improved Mann-Kendall Test

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Water yield (WY) refers to the difference between precipitation and evapotranspiration (ET), which is vital for available terrestrial water. Climate change has led to significant changes in precipitation and evapotranspiration on a global scale, which ...

How does land use cover change affect hydrological response in the Atlantic Forest? Implications for ecological restoration

open access: yesFrontiers in Water, 2022
Water availability is influenced by climate conditions and physical characteristics such as topography, soil type, and land use and cover. The Atlantic Forest has a long deforestation history and shows a climatic and environmental gradient that results ...

Grain yields with limited water [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2004
Plant reproduction is sensitive to water deficits, especially during the early phases when development may cease irreversibly even though the parent remains alive. Grain numbers decrease because of several developmental changes, especially ovary abortion in maize (Zea mays L.) or pollen sterility in small grains.
