Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon pools and flux of global forest ecosystems.
Robert K. Dixon,Allen M. Solomon,Sandra Brown,Richard A. Houghton,M. C. Trexier,J. Wisniewski +5 more
TL;DR: Slowing deforestation, combined with an increase in forestation and other management measures to improve forest ecosystem productivity, could conserve or sequester significant quantities of carbon.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global biome model based on plant physiology and dominance, soil properties and climate
I. Colin Prentice,Wolfgang Cramer,Sandy P. Harrison,Rik Leemans,Robert A. Monserud,Allen M. Solomon +5 more
TL;DR: A model to predict global patterns in vegetation physiognomy was developed from physiological considera- tions influencing the distributions of different functional types of plant in a given environment, and selected the potentially dominant types from among them as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forecasting Regional to Global Plant Migration in Response to Climate Change
Ronald P. Neilson,Louis F. Pitelka,Allen M. Solomon,Ran Nathan,Guy F. Midgley,José M. V. Fragoso,Heike Lischke,Ken Thompson +7 more
TL;DR: Simulation of plant migration and local vegetation change by dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) is critical, yet fraught with challenges because theories about climate change and migration are limited by inadequate data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tree Mortality in Gap Models: Application to Climate Change
Robert E. Keane,Mike P. Austin,Christopher B. Field,Andreas Huth,Manfred J. Lexer,Debra P. C. Peters,Allen M. Solomon,Peter H. Wyckoff +7 more
TL;DR: The treatment of mortality in gap models is reviewed, the relationships used to represent mortality in the current generation of gap models are evaluated, and the prospects for making improvements are assessed, especially for applications involving global climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Explaining forest composition and biomass across multiple biogeographical regions
Harald Bugmann,Allen M. Solomon +1 more
TL;DR: ForClim V2.9 as mentioned in this paper was developed to simulate individual tree species response to strong moisture seasonality and low temperature seasonality, and modified the widespread parabolic temperature response function to mimic nonlinear increases in growth with increased temperature up to species specific optimal values.
