A predictive understanding of the ecological impacts of nonnative species has been slow to
develop, owing largely to an apparent dearth of clearly defined hypotheses and the lack of a …

Invasive nonindigenous plant species (NIPS) threaten native diversity, alter ecosystem
processes, and may interact with other components of global environmental change. Here, a …

To assess the influence of global climate change at the regional scale, we examine past and
future changes in key climate, hydrological, and biophysical indicators across the US …

Abstract Abstract Changes in Earth's surface temperatures caused by anthropogenic
emissions of greenhouse gases are expected to affect global and regional precipitation …

We modeled and mapped, using the predictive data mining tool Random Forests, 134 tree
species from the eastern United States for potential response to several scenarios of climate …

Results from 16 free‐air CO2 enrichment (FACE) sites representing four different global
vegetation types indicate that only some early predictions of the effects of increasing CO2 …

Current threats to the planet's biodiversity are unprecedented, and they particularly imperil
insular floras. In this investigation, we use the threat factors identified by the Millennium …

Invasive plant species threaten native ecosystems, natural resources, and managed lands
worldwide. Climate change may increase risk from invasive plant species as favorable …

Seaweed and seagrass communities in the northeast Atlantic have been profoundly
impacted by humans, and the rate of change is accelerating rapidly due to runaway CO 2 …

Interactions between climate change and non‐native invasive species may combine to
increase invasion risk to native ecosystems. Changing climate creates risk as new terrain …
