Journal ArticleDOI
Projecting Cancer Incidence and Deaths to 2030: The Unexpected Burden of Thyroid, Liver, and Pancreas Cancers in the United States
Lola Rahib,Benjamin Smith,Rhonda Aizenberg,Allison B. Rosenzweig,Julie M. Fleshman,Lynn M. Matrisian +5 more
TL;DR: Pancreas and liver cancers are projected to surpass breast, prostate, and colorectal cancers to become the second and third leading causes of cancer-related death by 2030, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of ecosystem dynamics, plant geography and terrestrial carbon cycling in the LPJ dynamic global vegetation model
Stephen Sitch,Benjamin Smith,Iain Colin Prentice,Almut Arneth,Alberte Bondeau,Wolfgang Cramer,Jed O. Kaplan,Samuel Levis,Samuel Levis,Wolfgang Lucht,Martin T. Sykes,Kirsten Thonicke,Sergey Venevsky +12 more
TL;DR: The LPJ model as mentioned in this paper combines process-based, large-scale representations of terrestrial vegetation dynamics and land-atmosphere carbon and water exchanges in a modular framework, including feedback through canopy conductance between photosynthesis and transpiration and interactive coupling between these 'fast' processes and other ecosystem processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global response of terrestrial ecosystem structure and function to CO2 and climate change: results from six dynamic global vegetation models
Wolfgang Cramer,Alberte Bondeau,F. Ian Woodward,I. Colin Prentice,Richard Betts,Victor Brovkin,Peter M. Cox,Veronica A. Fisher,Jonathan A. Foley,Andrew D. Friend,Christopher J. Kucharik,Mark R. Lomas,Navin Ramankutty,Stephen Sitch,Benjamin Smith,Andrew White,Christine Young-Molling +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the possible responses of ecosystem processes to rising atmospheric CO2 concentration and climate change are illustrated using six dynamic global vegetation models that explicitly represent the interactions of ecosystem carbon and water exchanges with vegetation dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Future of Cancer Incidence in the United States: Burdens Upon an Aging, Changing Nation
TL;DR: Demographic changes in the United States will result in a marked increase in the number of cancer diagnoses over the next 20 years, and continued efforts are needed to improve cancer care for older adults and minorities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the role of agriculture for the 20th century global terrestrial carbon balance
Alberte Bondeau,P. C. Smith,Sönke Zaehle,Sibyll Schaphoff,Wolfgang Lucht,Wolfgang Cramer,Dieter Gerten,Hermann Lotze-Campen,Christoph Müller,Markus Reichstein,Benjamin Smith +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model of the managed planetary land surface, LPJmL, which simulates biophysical and biogeochemical processes as well as productivity and yield of the most important crops worldwide, using a concept of crop functional types (CFTs).
