Journal ArticleDOI
Fine-scale hydrologic modeling for regional landscape applications: the California Basin Characterization Model development and performance
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the utility of a Basin Characterization Model for California (CA-BCM) to integrate high-resolution data on physical watershed characteristics with historical or projected climate data to predict watershed specific hydrologic responses to changes in key climatic drivers across variable landscape conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fragmentation of China's landscape by roads and urban areas
Taian Li,Fraser Shilling,James H. Thorne,Feng-Min Li,Heidi Schott,Ryan M Boynton,Alison M. Berry +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the effective-mesh-size (Meff) method to evaluate the degree of landscape division in China, caused by paved roads, railways, and urban areas.

Journal ArticleDOI
The structure, function and value of urban forests in California communities
E. Gregory McPherson,Qingfu Xiao,Natalie S. van Doorn,John de Goede,Jacquelyn Bjorkman,Allan D. Hollander,Ryan M Boynton,James F. Quinn,James H. Thorne +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used tree data from field plots in urban areas to describe the structure of urban forest in California, and calculated several ecosystem services produced by trees. But they did not consider the threat posed by Invasive Shot Hole Borer (Euwallacea sp.) illustrates that urban forests are relatively fragile resource whose contributions to human health and well-being can be suddenly jeopardized.
Journal ArticleDOI
The magnitude and spatial patterns of historical and future hydrologic change in California's watersheds
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Basin Characterization Model (BCM), a regional water balance model, to identify watersheds with high levels of hydrologic change under drier and wetter future climates.
