- A global overview of drought and heat-induced tree mortality reveals emerging climate change risks for forests
- Of particular concern are potential increases in tree mortality associated with climate- induced physiological stress and interactions with other ...
- Drought’s legacy: multiyear hydraulic deterioration underlies widespread aspen forest die-off and portends increased future risk
- Forest mortality constitutes a major uncertainty in projections of climate impacts on terrestrial ecosystems and car- bon-cycle feedbacks. Recent ...
- Cross-scale Drivers of Natural Disturbances Prone to Anthropogenic Amplification: The Dynamics of Bark Beetle Eruptions
- Biome-scale disturbances by eruptive herbivores provide valuable insights into species interactions, ecosystem function, and impacts of global change. We ...
- Drought, disease, defoliation and death: forest pathogens as agents of past vegetation change
- The temperate and boreal forests of Europe and North America have been subject to repeated pathogen (fungal disease and phytophagus insect) outbreaks over the ...
- Don't Blame the Beetles
- Bark beetles have devastated western forests, but that may not mean more severe fires.
- Temporal dynamics of a commensal network of cavity-nesting vertebrates: increased diversity during an insect outbreak
- Network analysis offers insight into the structure and function of ecological communities, but little is known about how empirical networks change over time ...
- On underestimation of global vulnerability to tree mortality and forest die-off from hotter drought in the Anthropocene
- Despite recent observational, experimental, and modeling studies suggesting increased vulnerability of trees to hotter drought and associated pests and ...
- Climate change-associated tree mortality increases without decreasing water availability
- Here, we reveal temporally increasing tree mortality across all study species over the last three decades in the central boreal forests of Canada, where ...
- Multi-year drought-induced morbidity preceding tree death in Southeastern US forests
- Recent forest diebacks combined with threats of future drought focus attention on the extent to which tree death is caused by catastrophic events as opposed to ...
- Tree mortality predicted from drought-induced vascular damage
- The projected responses of forest ecosystems to warming and drying associated with twenty-first-century climate change vary widely from resiliency to ...
