Almost half of the total organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems is stored in forest soils.
By altering rates of input or release of C from soils, forest management activities can …

Many natural disturbances have a strong climate forcing, and concern is rising about how
ecosystems will respond to disturbance regimes to which they are not adapted. Novelty can …

2 Chapter 2 assesses observed large-scale changes in climate system drivers, key climate
indicators and 3 principal modes of variability. Chapter 3 considers model performance and …

Forest ecosystems are strongly impacted by continuing climate change and increasing
disturbance activity, but how forest dynamics will respond remains highly uncertain. Here …

As the world warms due to rising greenhouse gas concentrations, the Earth system moves
toward climate states without societal precedent, challenging adaptation. Past Earth system …

The Neotoma Paleoecology Database is a community-curated data resource that supports
interdisciplinary global change research by enabling broad-scale studies of taxon and …

Accounting for population-level adaptation and migration remains a central challenge to
predicting climate change effects on biodiversity. Assessing how climate change could …

Closer-to-Nature Forest Management is a new concept proposed in the EU Forest Strategy
for 2030, which aims to improve the conservation values and climate resilience of …

The contributions of species to ecosystem functions or services depend not only on their
presence but also on their local abundance. Progress in predictive spatial modelling has …

During the Anthropocene and other eras of rapidly changing climates, rates of change of
ecological systems can be described as fast, slow or abrupt. Fast ecological responses …
