  • Phenology of Ecosystem Processes

    Applications in Global Change Research

    Edición de Asko Noormets ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Terrestrial carbon balance is uncertain at the regional and global scale. A significant source of variability in mid-latitude ecosystems is related to the timing and duration of phenological phases. Spring phenology, in particular, has disproportionate effects on the annual carbon balance. However, the traditional phenological indices that are based on leaf-out and flowering times of select ...

  • The Landscape Ecology of Fire

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    Global warming is expected to change fire regimes, likely increasing the severity and extent of wildfires in many ecosystems around the world. What will be the landscape-scale effects of these altered fire regimes? Within what theoretical contexts can we accurately assess these effects? We explore the possible effects of altered fire regimes on landscape patch dynamics, dominant species (tree, ... Leer más
