Short term changes in moisture content drive strong changes in Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and gross primary productivity in four Arctic moss communities
(2018-04)Climate change is currently altering temperature and precipitation totals and timing in Arctic regions. Moss communities constitute much of the understory in Arctic vegetation, and as poikilohydric plants moss are highly ... -
Mass-induced sea level change in the northwestern North Pacific and its contribution to total sea level change
(John Wiley & Sons, 2013-08-02)Over the period 2003–2011, the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite pair revealed a remarkable variability in mass-induced sea surface height (MSSH) in the northwestern North Pacific. A significant ... -
Importance of coastal change variables in determining vulnerability to sea- and lake-level change
(Coastal Education and Research Foundation, 2010-01)In 2001, the U.S. Geological Survey began conducting scientific assessments of coastal vulnerability to potential future sea- and lake-level changes in 22 National Park Service sea- and lakeshore units. Coastal park units ...
