Forest microclimates contrast strongly with the climate outside forests. To fully understand and better predict how forests' biodiversity and functions relate to climate and climate …
Climate tipping points occur when change in a part of the climate system becomes self- perpetuating beyond a warming threshold, leading to substantial Earth system impacts …
It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …
Arctic warming can influence tundra ecosystem function with consequences for climate feedbacks, wildlife and human communities. Yet ecological change across the Arctic tundra …
Many feedback loops significantly increase warming due to greenhouse gas emissions. However, not all of these feedbacks are fully accounted for in climate models. Thus …
As the Arctic warms, vegetation is responding, and satellite measures indicate widespread greening at high latitudes. This 'greening of the Arctic'is among the world's most important …

Vegetation activity and phenology are significantly affected by climate change, and changes in vegetation activity and phenology can in turn affect regional or global climate patterns. As …
BACKGROUND The success of human societies depends intimately on the living components of natural and managed systems. Although the geographical range limits of …
The tundra is warming more rapidly than any other biome on Earth, and the potential ramifications are far-reaching because of global feedback effects between vegetation and …
