BACKGROUND Forest dynamics arise from the interplay of chronic drivers and transient
disturbances with the demographic processes of recruitment, growth, and mortality. The …

Ecosystems are dynamic systems with complex responses to environmental variation. In
response to pervasive stressors of changing climate and disturbance regimes, many …

Forest ecosystems are strongly impacted by continuing climate change and increasing
disturbance activity, but how forest dynamics will respond remains highly uncertain. Here …

There is mounting concern that global wildfire activity is shifting in frequency, intensity, and
seasonality in response to climate change. Fuel moisture provides a powerful means of …

Forest resilience to climate change is a global concern given the potential effects of
increased disturbance activity, warming temperatures and increased moisture stress on …

Ecologists have long studied patterns, directions and tempos of change, but there is a
pressing need to extend current understanding to empirical observations of abrupt changes …

In the context of ongoing climatic warming, forest landscapes face increasing risk of
conversion to non‐forest vegetation through alteration of their fire regimes and their post‐fire …

Abstract Fire regimes in North American forests are diverse and modern fire records are
often too short to capture important patterns, trends, feedbacks, and drivers of variability …

Warming trends are altering fire regimes globally, potentially impacting on the long-term
persistence of some ecosystems. However, we still lack clear understanding of how climatic …

Abstract Forests of the Australian Alps (SE Australia) are considered some of the most
vulnerable to climate change in the country, with ecosystem collapse considered likely for …
