Forest regeneration within Earth system models: current process representations and ways forward
AR Hanbury‐Brown, RE Ward, LM Kueppers - New Phytologist, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Earth system models must predict forest responses to global change in order to simulate
future global climate, hydrology, and ecosystem dynamics. These models are increasingly …

A changing climate is snuffing out post‐fire recovery in montane forests
Aim Climate warming is increasing fire activity in many of Earth's forested ecosystems.
Because fire is a catalyst for change, investigation of post‐fire vegetation response is critical …

Fire suppression makes wildfires more severe and accentuates impacts of climate change and fuel accumulation
Fire suppression is the primary management response to wildfires in many areas globally.
By removing less-extreme wildfires, this approach ensures that remaining wildfires burn …

Vegetation type conversion in the US Southwest: frontline observations and management responses
Background Forest and nonforest ecosystems of the western United States are experiencing
major transformations in response to land-use change, climate warming, and their …

Effects of postfire climate and seed availability on postfire conifer regeneration
Large, severe fires are becoming more frequent in many forest types across the western
United States and have resulted in tree mortality across tens of thousands of hectares …

Local forest structure variability increases resilience to wildfire in dry western US coniferous forests
A 'resilient'forest endures disturbance and is likely to persist. Resilience to wildfire may arise
from feedback between fire behaviour and forest structure in dry forest systems. Frequent fire …

Adaptation strategies and approaches for managing fire in a changing climate
As the effects of climate change accumulate and intensify, resource managers juggle
existing goals and new mandates to operationalize adaptation. Fire managers contend with …

[HTML][HTML] Planted seedling survival in a post-wildfire landscape: from experimental planting to predictive probabilistic surfaces
Abstract Across the southwestern United States, high-severity wildfire is causing
increasingly large areas of tree mortality and removing the seed sources required for the …

Year effects: Interannual variation as a driver of community assembly dynamics
Environmental conditions that vary from year to year can be strong drivers of ecological
dynamics, including the composition of newly assembled communities. However, ecologists …
