Abstract: Understanding vegetation response to natural and anthropogenic forcings is vital for managing watersheds as natural ecosystems. We used a novel integrated framework to separate the impacts of natural factors (e.g. drought, precipitation and temperature) from… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rsase.2020.100294
Abstract: Prolonged drought periods over large regions can affect a wide range of biomes and vegetation primary productivity. Here, we evaluated the long-term response of Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2018gl080238
Abstract: Extreme temperatures are responsible for damages to society and ecosystems. There is evidence that severe episodes of extreme heat have been occurring more frequently and more severely in recent periods. Driven primarily by oceanic and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-06319-6
Abstract: The Cenomanian–Turonian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE2; ~94.5 million years ago) represents an episode of global-scale marine anoxia and biotic turnover, which corresponds to one of the warmest time intervals in the Phanerozoic. Despite its global… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-018-0361-0
Abstract: Climate model projections using offline aridity and/or drought indices predict substantial terrestrial drying over the twenty-first century1–11. However, these same models also predict an increased runoff12–15. This contradiction has been linked to an absence of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13704
Abstract: Ongoing and future anthropogenic climate change poses one of the greatest threats to biodiversity, affecting species distributions and ecological interactions. In the Amazon, climatic changes are expected to induce warming, disrupt precipitation patterns and of… read more here.
