Assessing the impacts of economic and climate changes on land-use in mountain regions: A spatial dynamic modeling approach (2012, methodology): “The model has been tested in the Central Alps, North merican Rocky Mountains, and Mediterranean forests, and has een used to simulate current forest as well as paleo-ecological Colombaroli et al., 2010; Henne et al., 2011) and future forest ynamics (Schumacher and Bugmann, 2006).”
The past ecology of Abies alba provides new perspectives on future responses of silver fir forests to global warming (2013, background): “Under temperate to warm conditions, these two species are more drought-sensitive and less competitive than A. alba (Ellenberg 2009, Ellenberg and Leuschner 2010, Henne et al. 2011) and may thus collapse in response of future warming and declining moisture availability (CH2011 2011).”
Using dynamic vegetation models to simulate plant range shifts (2014, background): “Paleoapplications, which simulate vegetation shifts after the last glacial maximum (Henne et al. 2011) are particularly good candidates for temporal upscaling, as time scales are long and uncertainty about the interannual variability in climatic reconstructions large (Simonis et al. 2012).”
