Despite their extent and socio‐ecological importance, a comprehensive biogeographical
synthesis of drylands is lacking. Here we synthesize the biogeography of key organisms …

The global demand for food and bioenergy changes associated with land use and land
cover change (LULCC) has raised concerns about the environment, global warming, and …

Previous evaluations on the biophysical potential of forest carbon sink have focused on
forestation area distribution and the associated carbon stock for equilibrium-state forests …

Unlike satellite images, which are typically acquired and processed in near-real-time, global
land cover products have historically been produced on an annual basis, often with …

Annual food caloric production is the product of caloric yield, cropping frequency (CF,
number of production seasons per year) and cropland area. Existing studies have largely …

Climate extremes such as droughts and heatwaves have a large impact on terrestrial carbon
uptake by reducing gross primary production (GPP). While the evidence for increasing …

Live woody vegetation is the largest reservoir of biomass carbon, with its restoration
considered one of the most effective natural climate solutions. However, terrestrial carbon …

There is mounting concern that global wildfire activity is shifting in frequency, intensity, and
seasonality in response to climate change. Fuel moisture provides a powerful means of …

Quantifying the resilience of vegetated ecosystems is key to constraining both present-day
and future global impacts of anthropogenic climate change. Here we apply both empirical …

Climate change is shifting the growing seasons of plants, affecting species performance and
biogeochemical cycles. Yet how the timing of autumn leaf senescence in Northern …
