- A synthesis of tree functional traits related to drought-induced mortality in forests across climatic zones (2017, background): “A spectrum of drought regimes occurs throughout the tropical climatic zone with one or 2 yearly dry seasons of different intensity overlain by irregular inter-annual drought periods in parts of Southeast Asia and the Amazon Basin.”
- Surface freshwater storage and dynamics in the Amazon basin during the 2005 exceptional drought (2012, background): “This coincides with the areas of largest anomalies of MCWD and increase in tree mortality (Aragão et al 2007, Lewis et al 2011), and with regions with important fire activity in 2005 (Koren et al 2007).”
- Vegetation response to extreme climate events on the Mongolian Plateau from 2000 to 2010 (2012, background): “Most vegetation greenness anomaly studies have focused on the effects of summer drought on forest biomes with significant carbon sequestration potential like the Amazon basin (Samanta et al 2010, Brando et al 2010, Lewis et al 2011, Xu et al 2011).”
- CTFS‐ForestGEO: a worldwide network monitoring forests in an era of global change (2015, background): “…increases in aridity or the occurrence of severe droughts have led to forest “browning”, mortality episodes, or fires (Van Nieuwstadt & Sheil, 2005; Lewis et al., 2011; Zhou et al., 2014), and there is concern that potential future increases in aridity in some parts of the tropics could result…”
- A few extreme events dominate global interannual variability in gross primary production (2014, background): “In contrast to earlier studies which analyzed climate extremes and their effects on the carbon cycle (Potter et al 2003, Ciais et al 2005, Reichstein et al 2007, Zhao and Running 2010, Barriopedro et al 2011, Lewis et al 2011, Ma et al 2012), our work is based on two major innovations.”
- Effects of climate extremes on the terrestrial carbon cycle: concepts, processes and potential future impacts (2015, methodology): “This is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.”
- Global change effects on humid tropical forests: Evidence for biogeochemical and biodiversity shifts at an ecosystem scale (2016, background): “Observational data indicate that drought is becoming more frequent and affecting larger areas, with a 2010 drought in the Amazon affecting 20% more land area than a 2005Amazondrought [Lewis et al., 2011].”
