Introduction As ecological disasters loom, forests play a crucial role in mitigating climate
change and aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This …

Dynamic ecosystems, such as the Amazon forest, are expected to show critical slowing
down behavior, or slower recovery from recurrent small perturbations, as they approach an …

The future of tropical forests hinges on the balance between disturbance rates, which are
expected to increase with climate change, and tree growth. Whereas tree growth is a slow …

The Amazon forests play an integral role in the global carbon cycle and have a substantial
impact on Earth's climate. However, it is increasingly susceptible to the effects of prolonged …

Anthropogenic global change fundamentally impacts ecosystem biogeochemical cycling.
Although litter decomposition is a crucial component of carbon (C) cycling, its response to …

Rapid warming and high temperatures are an immediate threat to global ecosystems, but
the threat may be especially pronounced in the tropics. Although low‐latitude tree species …

Abstract During the 2015–2016 El Niño, the Amazon basin released almost one gigaton of
carbon (GtC) into the atmosphere due to extreme temperatures and drought. The link …

Vegetation temperature sensitivity is a key indicator to understand the response of
vegetation to temperature changes and predict potential shifts in ecosystem functions …

Tropical moist forests have been severely affected by natural and anthropogenic
disturbances, leading to substantial changes in global carbon cycle and climate. These …
