  1. Measuring and Managing Resistance and Resilience Under Climate Change in Northern Great Lake Forests (USA)

    Context: Climate change will have diverse and interacting effects on forests over the next century. One of the most pronounced effects may be a decline in resistance to chronic change and resilience to acute...

  2. Climate Change Effects on Northern Great Lake (USA) Forests: A Case for Preserving Diversity

    Under business as usual (BAU) management, stresses posed by climate change may exceed the ability of Great Lake forests to adapt. Temperature and precipitation projections in the Great Lakes region are expected...

  3. Carbon Dynamics in the Future Forest: the Importance of Long-Term Successional Legacy and Climate–Fire Interactions

    Understanding how climate change may influence forest carbon (C) budgets requires knowledge of forest growth relationships with regional climate, long-term forest succession, and past and future disturbances,...

  4. A New Model For Simulating Climate Change and Carbon Dynamics in Forested Landscapes

    Journal of Ecosystems & Management vol. 13 no. 2 2012 news brief .

  5. Impacts of Fire and Climate Change on Long-Term Nitrogen Availability and Forest Productivity in the New Jersey Pine Barrens

    Increased wildfires and temperatures due to climate change are expected to have profound effects on forest productivity and nitrogen (N) cycling. Forecasts about how wildfire and climate change will affect...

  6. Forest Restoration in a Mixed-Ownership Landscape under Climate Change

    The article presents a study regarding forest management associated with climate change. It mentions that preservation endeavors and restoration schemes should diminish current threats like unsuited forest...

  7. Effectiveness of Fuel Treatments for Mitigating Wildfire Risk and Sequestering Forest Carbon: A Case Study in the Lake Tahoe...

    Fuel-reduction treatments are used extensively to reduce wildfire risk and restore forest diversity and function. In the near future, increasing regulation of carbon (C) emissions may force forest managers to...

  8. Climate-Suitable Planting as a Strategy for Maintaining Forest Productivity and Functional Diversity

    Within the time frame of the longevity of tree species, climate change will change faster than the ability of natural tree migration. Migration lags may result in reduced productivity and reduced diversity in...

  9. An Individual-Based Process Model to Simulate Landscape-Scale Forest Ecosystem Dynamics

    Forest ecosystem dynamics emerges from nonlinear interactions between adaptive biotic agents (i.e., individual trees) and their relationship with a spatially and temporally heterogeneous abiotic environment....

  10. An individual-based process model to simulate landscape-scale forest ecosystem dynamics

    To the best of our knowledge, one or more authors of this paper were federal employees when contributing to this work.
