A global network of long‐term carbon and water flux measurements has existed since the
late 1990s. With its representative sampling of the terrestrial biosphere's climate and …

It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4)
and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …

Abstract Changes in terrestrial carbon storage under environmental and land-use changes
remain a critical source of uncertainty in regional and global carbon budgets. We generated …

Recovery time, the time it takes for ecosystems to return to normal states after experiencing
droughts, is critical for assessing the response of ecosystems to droughts; however, the …

The time required for an ecosystem to recover from severe drought is a key component of
ecological resilience. The phenology effects on drought recovery are, however, poorly …

Traditional, mainstream definitions of drought describe it as deficit in water‐related variables
or water‐dependent activities (eg, precipitation, soil moisture, surface and groundwater …

The year 2022 saw record breaking temperatures in Europe during both summer and fall.
Similar to the recent 2018 drought, close to 30%(3.0 million km2) of the European continent …

Excessive emissions of greenhouse gases—of which carbon dioxide is the most significant
component, are regarded as the primary reason for increased concentration of atmospheric …

In summer 2018, central and northern Europe were stricken by extreme drought and heat
(DH2018). The DH2018 differed from previous events in being preceded by extreme spring …
