Global economic effects of changes in crops, pasture, and forests due to changing climate, carbon dioxide, and ozone
Reilly, John M.; Paltsev, Sergey; Felzer, Benjamin S.; Wang, X.; Kicklighter, David W.; Melillo, Jerry M.; Prinn, Ronald G.; Sarofim, Marcus C.; Sokolov, Andrei P.; Wang, C. (2006-01)Multiple environmental changes will have consequences for global vegetation. To the extent that crop yields and pasture and forest productivity are affected there can be important economic consequences. We examine the ... -
Abrupt climate change as an important agent of ecological change in the Northeast U.S. throughout the past 15,000 years
Shuman, Bryan N.; Newby, Paige E.; Donnelly, Jeffrey P. (2009-03-30)We use a series of tests to evaluate two competing hypotheses about the association of climate and vegetation trends in the northeastern United States over the past 15 kyrs. First, that abrupt climate changes on the scale ... -
Mass-induced sea level change in the northwestern North Pacific and its contribution to total sea level change
Cheng, Xuhua; Li, Lijuan; Du, Yan; Wang, Jing; Huang, Rui Xin (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 ...
