Climate change vulnerability in urban slum communities: Investigating household adaptation and decision-making capacity in the Indian Himalaya
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd Climate change is predicted to have severe impacts on mountainous regions, including urban settlements, and livelihoods of the urban poor. Adaptive capacity for marginalized groups is largely determined ...
Impacts of twenty years of experimental warming on soil carbon, nitrogen, moisture and soil mites across alpine/subarctic tundra communities
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2017 , Article)
High-altitude and alpine areas are predicted to experience rapid and substantial increases in future temperature, which may have serious impacts on soil carbon, nutrient and soil fauna. Here we report the impact of 20 years ...
Responses of lichen communities to 18 years of natural and experimental warming
(
Oxford University Press
, 2017 , Article)
Background and Aims Climate change is expected to have major impacts on high alpine and arctic ecosystems in the future, but empirical data on the impact of long-term warming on lichen diversity and richness are sparse. ...
Agroecology as a Climate Change Adaptation Strategy for Smallholders of Tehri-Garhwal in the Indian Himalayan Region
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2017 , Article)
Climate change is expected to increase temperatures and rainfall in the Himalayan region and place stress on local livelihoods by affecting agro-biodiversity, crop yield, cropping patterns and the species composition of ...
Mapping biodiversity conservation priorities for protected areas: A case study in Xishuangbanna Tropical Area, China
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Global biodiversity is declining rapidly, posing a severe threat to ecosystem functions and services. Protected Areas (PAs) can be extremely effective in protecting biodiversity, but conservation gaps arise as a result of ...
Effects of ambient climate and three warming treatments on fruit production in an alpine, subarctic meadow community
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
Premise
Climate change is having major impacts on alpine and arctic regions, and inter‐annual variations in temperature are likely to increase. How increased climate variability will impact plant reproduction is ...
Diversity-productivity dependent resistance of an alpine plant community to different climate change scenarios
(
Springer Tokyo
, 2016 , Article)
Here we report from a experiment imposing different warming scenarios [control with ambient temperature, constant level of moderate warming for 3�years, stepwise increase in warming for 3�years, and one season of high level ...
Impacts of rural tourism-driven land use change on ecosystems services provision in Erhai Lake Basin, China
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
© 2020 Elsevier B.V. Tourism is an expanding activity worldwide, with vital implications for local economies but also for ecosystem management. Rural tourism in particular drives land use change, which results in ecosystem ...
Impacts of different climate change regimes and extreme climatic events on an alpine meadow community
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2016 , Article)
Climate variability is expected to increase in future but there exist very few experimental studies that apply different warming regimes on plant communities over several years. We studied an alpine meadow community under ...
Planning for assisted colonization of plants in a warming world
(
Nature Publishing Group
, 2016 , Article)
Assisted colonization is one way of facilitating range shifts for species that are restricted in their ability to move in response to climate change. Here we conceptualize and apply a new decision framework for modelling ...
