The boreal forest biome is a major component of Earth's biosphere and climate system that
is projected to shift northward due to continued climate change over the coming century …

Recent studies have used satellite-derived normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI)
time series to explore geographic patterns in boreal forest greening and browning. A …

Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 373–379 Abstract Global vegetation models predict that boreal
forests are particularly sensitive to a biome shift during the 21st century. This shift would …

Abstract Changes in boreal climate of the magnitude projected for the 21st century have
always caused vegetation changes large enough to be societally important. However, the …

Biomes are important constructs for organizing understanding of how the worlds' major
terrestrial ecosystems differ from one another and for monitoring change in these …

A number of remote sensing studies have evaluated the temporal trends of the normalized
difference vegetation index (NDVI or vegetation greenness) in the North American boreal …

A warming global climate will elicit changes in the distribution of plant species around the
planet, and this will become most apparent where biomes converge. Climate exerts the …

Climate change is altering vegetation and disturbance dynamics in boreal ecosystems.
However, the aggregate impact of these changes on boreal carbon budgets is not well …

A multitude of disturbance agents, such as wildfires, land use, and climate‐driven expansion
of woody shrubs, is transforming the distribution of plant functional types across Arctic …

Biomass change of the world's forests is critical to the global carbon cycle. Despite storing
nearly half of global forest carbon, the boreal biome of diverse forest types and ages is a …
