The size and frequency of large wildfires in western North America have increased in recent
years, a trend climate change is likely to exacerbate. Due to fuel limitations, recently burned …

As 21st‐century climate and disturbance dynamics depart from historic baselines,
ecosystem resilience is uncertain. Multiple drivers are changing simultaneously, and …

Projected effects of climate change across many ecosystems globally include more frequent
disturbance by fire and reduced plant growth due to warmer (and especially drier) …

We used measurements of CO2 exchange by six Canadian boreal forest stands to
determine how sites of contrasting age respond to interannual temperature and precipitation …

Recent increases in fire frequency and severity across the western US are triggering abrupt
changes in ecosystem structure and composition, especially in lower montane forests, but …

Abstract Theory predicts that the postindustrial rise in the concentration of CO 2 in the
atmosphere (ca) should enhance tree growth either through a direct fertilization effect or …

Abstract Most North American forests are at some stage of post‐disturbance regrowth,
subject to a changing climate, and exhibit growth and mortality patterns that may not be …

Climate change and fire exclusion have increased the flammability of western United States
forests, leading to forest cover loss when wildfires occur under severe weather conditions …

Climate change can impact forest ecosystem processes via individual tree and community
responses. While the importance of land-use legacies in modulating these processes have …

Climate change is expected to increase fire activity and woody plant encroachment in arctic
and alpine landscapes. However, the extent to which these increases interact to affect the …
