How Landscape Ecology Informs Global Land-Change Science and Policy
Landscape ecology is a discipline that explicitly considers the influence of time and space on the environmental patterns we observe and the processes that create them. Although... -
Nature-based Tour Operator Response to Environmental Change in Juneau, Alaska
Increasing temperatures are projected to have a positive effect on the length of Alaska’s summer tourism season, but the natural attractions that tourism relies on, such as... -
Climate change implications in the northern coastal temperate rainforest of N...
We synthesized an expert review of climate change implications for hydroecological and terrestrial ecological systems in the northern coastal temperate rainforest of North... -
Evapotranspiration in a subarctic agroecosystem: field measurements, modeling...
Northern latitudes are known to be the most vulnerable regions already witnessing the impacts of climate change. These impacts have not only affected a broad spectrum of... -
Conceptual and Institutional Frameworks for Protected Areas, and the Status o...
The Bering Strait region of Alaska is a culturally, economically, biologically, and politically important area of the Arctic. Like the rest of the arctic, this area is... -
Synergistic degradation of lignocellulose by fungi and bacteria in boreal for...
Boreal forests contain an estimated 28% of the world's soil carbon, and currently act as a significant global carbon sink. Plant-derived lignocellulose is a major component of... -
The Impacts of Changing Disturbance Regimes on Serotinous Plant Populations a...
Climatic change is anticipated to alter disturbance regimes for many ecosystems. Among the most important effects are changes in the frequency, size, and intensity of wildfires.... -
Potential Effects of Forest Disturbances and Management on Water Resources in...
There is growing concern that a warming climate will alter water supplies in many regions. Determining the best course of management and adaptation is an important task for... -
Icefield-to-Ocean Linkages across the Northern Pacific Coastal Temperate Rain...
Rates of glacier mass loss in the northern Pacific coastal temperate rainforest (PCTR) are among the highest on Earth, and changes in glacier volume and extent will affect the... -
Climate change implications in the northern coastal temperate rainforest of N...
We synthesized an expert review of climate change implications for hydroecological and terrestrial ecological systems in the northern coastal temperate rainforest of North... -
Stream temperature response to variable glacier coverage in coastal watershed...
We measured stream temperature continuously during the 2011 summer run-off season (May through October) in nine watersheds of Southeast Alaska that provide spawning habitat for... -
Climate Induced Shifts in Salmon Phenology (2010-present)
Hydro-ecological changes across Southeast Alaska and N British Columbia Objectives To quantify, understand covariates of, and project spatio-temporal trends in migration timing... -
AK Hydro Glaciers in Southeast Alaska
The Randolph Glacier Inventory (RGI) is a globally complete inventory of glacier outlines. It is supplemental to the Global Land Ice Measurements from Space initiative (GLIMS). -
Remote sensing the vulnerability of vegetation in natural terrestrial ecosystems
Climate change is altering the species composition, structure, and function of vegetation in natural terrestrial ecosystems. These changes can also impact the essential... -
