Title Description
Opinion : No quick switch to low-carbon energy In the first of two pieces on reducing greenhouse-gas emissions, Gert Jan Kramer and Martin Haigh analyse historic growth in energy systems to explain why deplo...
Resource diversity and landscape-level homogeneity drive native bee foraging Given widespread declines in pollinator communities and increas- ing global reliance on pollinator-dependent crops, there is an acute need to develop a mechanis...
Response of the North Atlantic storm track to climate change shaped by ocean– atmosphere coupling A poleward shift of the mid-latitude storm tracks in response to anthropogenic greenhouse-gas forcing has been diagnosed in climate model simulations1,2. Explan...
Phenology Feedbacks on Climate Change A longer growing season as a result of climate change will in turn affect climate through biogeochemical and biophysical effects. SCIENCE VOL 324
Approaching the Limits: A book review in Science Excerpts: "In Harvesting the Biosphere, Vaclav Smil traces the historical development of human consumption of biological resources and evaluates whether we coul...
Seasons and Life Cycles A conceptual framework. This table is a guide to determining how individual species are responding to an extended growing season by observing the duration of p...
Wildlife decline and social conflict Policies aimed at reducing wildlife-related conflict must address the underlying causes
Hydrological connectivity in coastal inland systems: lessons from a Neotropical fish metacommunity We assessed the influence of hydrological connectivity in structuring fish communities through seasonal samplings of environmental variables and fishes in a coa...
Area–heterogeneity tradeoff and the diversity of ecological communities For more than 50 y ecologists have believed that spatial heterogeneity in habitat conditions promotes species richness by increasing opportunities for niche par...
Bergmann’s rule and climate change revisited: Disentangling environmental and genetic responses in a wild bird population Ecological responses to on-going climate change are numerous, diverse, and taxonomically widespread. However, with one exception, the relative roles of phenotyp...
Impact of ocean acidification on the structure of future phytoplankton communities Phytoplankton form the foundation of the marine food web and regulate key biogeochemical processes. These organisms face multiple environmental changes1, includ...
Global Warming: Why Business is Taking it So Seriously. Consensus is growing among scientists, governments, and business that they must act fast to combat climate change. This has already sparked efforts to limit CO[...
The floodplain large-wood cycle hypothesis: A mechanism for the physical and biotic structuring of temperate forested alluvial valleys in the North Pacific coastal ecoregion A ‘floodplain large-wood cycle’ is hypothesized as a mechanism for generating landforms and influencing river dynamics in ways that structure and maintain r...

After the talks The real business of decarbonization begins after an agreement is signed at the Paris climate conference, argue David G. Victor and James P. Leape.
Water in the Balance Satellite data may enable improved management of regional groundwater reserves. VOL 340 SCIENCE
Limits to adaptation An actor-centered, risk-based approach to defining limits to social adaptation provides a useful analytic framing for identifying and anticipating these limits ...
Rapid deposition of oxidized biogenic compounds to a temperate forest We report fluxes and dry deposition velocities for 16 atmospheric compounds above a southeastern United States forest, including: hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), nitr...
Evaluating the Effects and Effectiveness of Post-fire Seeding Treatments in Western Forests Key Findings• In studies that evaluated soil erosion in seeded versus unseeded controls, 78 percent revealed that seeding did not reduce erosion relative to u...
The global volume and distribution of modern groundwater Groundwater is important for energy and food security, human health and ecosystems. The time since groundwater was recharged—or groundwater age—can be impor...
