Driving forces of global wildfires over the past millennium and the forthcoming century (2010, background): “3) and largely agree with another estimate (22).”
The human dimension of fire regimes on Earth (2011, background): “Several modelling studies have shown that increasing global temperatures could lead to increases in fire occurrence in some areas of the globe, but to decreases in others (Scholze et al., 2006; Krawchuk et al., 2009; Pechony & Shindell, 2010).”
Causes and impacts of the 2005 Amazon drought (2008, background): “Although the causes of 2005 drought and future scenarios may differ, similar impact mechanisms likely underly the risk of possible alteration to the Amazon ecosystem and carbon cycle [22, 23].”
Mechanisms of plant survival and mortality during drought: why do some plants survive while others succumb to drought? (2008, background): “…that results in widespread mortality is lacking, yet is fundamentally needed to assess potential climate-change impacts, including changes in vegetation and associated ecosystems and their feedbacks to the climate system (Keane et al., 2001; Burkett et al., 2005; Scholze et al., 2006; IPCC, 2007).”
Extreme climatic events and vegetation: the role of stabilizing processes (2012, background): “In relatively seasonal cold climates, moderate climate warming can enhance baseline tree growth and survival (Scholze et al., 2006), unless temperature-induced drought stress becomes disproportionately important (Wilmking et al., 2004).”
Global Pyrogeography: the Current and Future Distribution of Wildfire (2009, background): “Although novel ideas about the role of fire in shaping global vegetation patterns [19] and how fire frequency might change in the future [15] have been explored with DGVMs, the simplified approach to simulating fire in many DGVMs has, as yet, limited their utility in understanding current patterns o”
Vulnerability of national economies to the impacts of climate change on fisheries (2009, methodology): “We therefore compromised and used projected mean surface air temperature to 2050 as the underlying indicator of exposure to climate change as it is the most direct, best understood and most readily available indicator of future climate change (Table 2; see also Scholze et al. 2006).”
Identifying priority areas for reducing species vulnerability to climate change (2012, background): “Climate change is likely to have a significant impact on future distributions of native species and ecosystems (Malcolm et al., 2006; Scholze et al., 2006; Araújo, 2009).”
Biodiversity and extinction (2007, neutral): “…and patterns of global environmental change suggest that this will continue to be the case, with many of the pressures that these species have faced being predicted to increase rather than ease in their intensity (Cardillo et al., 2004; Scholze et al., 2006; Lewis, 2006; Thuiller et al., 2006).”
Reconciling the optimal and empirical approaches to modelling stomatal conductance (2011, methodology): “…et al., 1997; Pitman, 2003), whereas dynamic vegetation models are our major tool for predicting climate impacts on biospheric carbon cycles (e.g. Scholze et al., 2006; Sitch et al., 2008), hydrological cycles (e.g. Gedney et al., 2006; Piao et al., 2007) and nutrient cycles (e.g. Ostle et al.,…”
