For two decades, remotely sensed data from imaging spectrometers have been used to
estimate non-pigment biochemical constituents of vegetation, including water, nitrogen …

Mixed-species forests can sometimes fulfil forest functions and services better than
monocultures and are therefore receiving growing attention in forest science and practice …

Acidic deposition was first identified by RA Smith in England in the 19th century (Smith
1872). Acidic deposition emerged as an ecological issue in the late 1960s and early 1970s …

Ecosystem simulation models use descriptive input parameters to establish the physiology,
biochemistry, structure, and allocation patterns of vegetation functional types, or biomes. For …

Some 60% of coastal rivers and bays in the US have been moderately to severely degraded
by nutrient pollution. Both nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) contribute to the problem …

We introduce LANDIS-II, a landscape model designed to simulate forest succession and
disturbances. LANDIS-II builds upon and preserves the functionality of previous LANDIS …

Environmental problems in coastal ecosystems can sometimes be attributed to excess
nutrients flowing from upstream watersheds into estuarine settings. This nutrient over …

The documented acceleration of NH3 and NOx (NO+ NO2) emissions over the last 150
years has accelerated N deposition, compromising air and water quality and altering the …

The term “legacy effect” has been used in ecology since the early 1990s by authors studying
plant succession, invasive-plant impacts, herbivory impacts, ecosystem engineering, and …

To assess the fate of the large amounts of nitrogen (N) brought into the environment by
human activities, we constructed N budgets for sixteen large watersheds (475 to 70,189 km …
