5. Carbon dioxide and the uneasy interactions of trees and savannah grasses.

   William J Bond, Guy F Midgley in Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences (2012)

   Savannahs are a mixture of trees and grasses often occurring as alternate states to closed forests. Savannah fires are frequent where grass productivity is high in the wet season. Fires help maintain grassy vegetation where the climate is suitable…

6. Evolution of C4 plants: a new hypothesis for an interaction of CO2 and water relations mediated by plant hydraulics.

   Colin P Osborne, Lawren Sack in Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences (2012)

   C(4) photosynthesis has evolved more than 60 times as a carbon-concentrating mechanism to augment the ancestral C(3) photosynthetic pathway. The rate and the efficiency of photosynthesis are greater in the C(4) than C(3) type under atmospheric CO(2)…

8. Committed carbon emissions, deforestation, and community land conversion from oil palm plantation expansion in West Kalimantan, Indonesia.

   Kimberly M Carlson, Lisa M Curran, Dessy Ratnasari, Alice M Pittman, Britaldo S Soares-Filho, Gregory P Asner, et al. in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (2012)

   Industrial agricultural plantations are a rapidly increasing yet largely unmeasured source of tropical land cover change. Here, we evaluate impacts of oil palm plantation development on land cover, carbon flux, and agrarian community lands in West…

14. The velocity of climate change.

    Scott R Loarie, Philip B Duffy, Healy Hamilton, Gregory P Asner, Christopher B Field, David D Ackerly in Nature (2009)

    The ranges of plants and animals are moving in response to recent changes in climate. As temperatures rise, ecosystems with 'nowhere to go', such as mountains, are considered to be more threatened. However, species survival may depend as much on…
