Determining how climate change will affect global ecology and ecosystem services is one of
the next important frontiers in environmental science. Many species already exhibit smaller …

Ecological changes in the phenology and distribution of plants and animals are occurring in
all well-studied marine, freshwater, and terrestrial groups. These observed changes are …

The extension of growing season at high northern latitudes seems increasingly clear from
satellite observations of vegetation extent and duration,. This extension is also thought to …

An anomalous reduction in forest growth indices and temperature sensitivity has been
detected in tree-ring width and density records from many circumpolar northern latitude sites …

Each tree ring contains an image of the time when the ring formed, projected onto the ring's
size, structure, and composition. Tree rings thus are natural archives of past environments …

Climate field reconstructions from networks of tree-ring proxy data can be used to
characterize regional-scale climate changes, reveal spatial anomaly patterns associated …

Tree-ring chronologies that represent annual changes in the density of wood formed during
the late summer can provide a proxy for local summertime air temperature. Here we …

This revision maintains the position of Forest Ecosystems as the one source for the latest
information on the advanced methods that have enhanced our understating of forest …
