[HTML][HTML] Climate change reduces extent of temperate drylands and intensifies drought in deep soils
Drylands cover 40% of the global terrestrial surface and provide important ecosystem
services. While drylands as a whole are expected to increase in extent and aridity in coming …

Climate change‐induced vegetation shifts lead to more ecological droughts despite projected rainfall increases in many global temperate drylands
Drylands occur worldwide and are particularly vulnerable to climate change because dryland
ecosystems depend directly on soil water availability that may become increasingly limited …

Semi‐arid grazing systems and climate change: a survey of present modelling potential and future needs
Sustainable land use under climate change requires detailed knowledge of the system
dynamics. This applies particularly for the management of domestic livestock in semi‐arid and …

Effects of climate change on the coupled dynamics of water and vegetation in drylands
Drylands worldwide are exposed to a highly variable environment and face a high risk of
degradation. The effects of global climate change such as altered precipitation patterns and …

A global system for monitoring ecosystem service change
Earth's life-support systems are in flux, yet no centralized system to monitor and report these
changes exists. Recognizing this, 77 nations agreed to establish the Group on Earth …

Estimating the risk of Amazonian forest dieback
Climate change will very likely affect most forests in Amazonia during the course of the 21st
century, but the direction and intensity of the change are uncertain, in part because of …
