Title Description
How wide is a stream? Spatial extent of the potential ‘‘stream signature’’ in terrestrial food webs using meta-analysis The magnitude of cross-ecosystem resource subsidies is increasingly well recognized; however, less is known about the distance these subsidies travel into the r...
BOTANY AND A CHANGING WORLD: INTRODUCTION TO THE SPECIAL ISSUE ON GLOBAL BIOLOGICAL CHANGE The impacts of global change have heightened the need to understand how organisms respond to and influence these changes. Can we forecast how change at the glob...
Wildfire, Wildlands, and People: Understanding and Preparing for Wildfire in the Wildland-Urban Interface: Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-299. Fort Collins, CO. U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 36 p. Fire has historically played a fundamental ecological role in many of America’s wildland areas. However, the rising number of homes in the wildland-urban inte...
Increasing Northern Hemisphere water deficit A monthly water-balance model is used with CRUTS3.1 gridded monthly precip- itation and potential evapotranspiration (PET) data to examine changes in global wat...
Safe Havens, Safe Passages for Vulnerable Fish and Wildlife Some of the best-known and most-cherished mountains on Earth are set in the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia and Alberta. Indeed, the mention of Banff, Ja...
Effects of Urbanization and Climate Change on Stream Health Estimation of stream health involves the analysis of changes in aquatic species, riparian vegetation, microinvertebrates, and channel degradation due to hydrolo...
Global non-linear effect of temperature on economic production Growing evidence demonstrates that climatic conditions can have a profound impact on the functioning of modern human societies (1,2), but effects on economic ac...
Terrestrial water fluxes dominated by transpiration Renewable fresh water over continents has input from precipitation and losses to the atmosphere through evaporation and transpiration .... The dominance of tran...
Cross-scale impact of climate temporal variability on ecosystem water and carbon fluxes While the importance of ecosystem functioning is undisputed in the context of climate change and Earth system modeling, the role of short-scale temporal variabi...
Wildfire and fuel treatment effects on forest carbon dynamics in the western United States Sequestration of carbon (C) in forests has the potential to mitigate the effects of climate change by offsetting future emissions of greenhouse gases. However,...
Ecosystem Service Markets 101: Supply and Demand for Nature Establishing markets for ecosystem services—the benefits that nature provides, such as clean air, water, and wildlife habitat—has gained traction in some ci...

Identifying human influences on atmospheric temperature We perform a multimodel detection and attribution study with climate model simulation output and satellite-based measurements of tropospheric and stratospheric ...
Integrating multiple lines of evidence into historical biogeography hypothesis testing: a Bison bison case study One of the grand goals of historical biogeography is to understand how and why species’ population sizes and distributions change over time. Multiple types of...
Terrestrial water fluxes dominated by transpiration Renewable fresh water over continents has input from precipitation and losses to the atmosphere through evaporation and transpiration. Global-scale estimates of...
Characterizing coal and mineral mines as a regional source of stress to stream fish assemblages Mining impacts on stream systems have historically been studied over small spatial scales, yet investigations over large areas may be useful for characterizing ...
Density stratification in an estuary with complex geometry: Driving processes and relationship to hypoxia on monthly to inter-annual timescales The density field in Narragansett Bay (NB), a northeast U.S. estuary with complex geometry that suffers hypoxia, is described and related to driving factors usi...
The Montérégie Connection: linking landscapes, biodiversity, and ecosystem services to improve decision making To maximize specific ecosystem services (ES) such as food production, people alter landscape structure, i.e., the types of ecosystems present, their relative pr...
Effects of Climatic Variability and Change on Forest Ecosystems: General Technical Report PNW-GTR-870 December 2012 This report is a scientific assessment of the current condition and likely future condition of forest resources in the United States relative to climatic variab...
Palaeodata-informed modelling of large carbon losses from recent burning of boreal forests Although boreal fire regimes are heterogeneous, recent trends6 and future projections7 point to increasing fire activity in response to climate warming througho...
