Journal ArticleDOI
Precipitation pulses and carbon fluxes in semiarid and arid ecosystems
Travis E. Huxman,Keirith A. Snyder,David T. Tissue,A. Joshua Leffler,Kiona Ogle,William T. Pockman,Darren R. Sandquist,Daniel Potts,Susan Schwinning +8 more
TL;DR: It is shown that pulse size regulates C balance by determining the temporal duration of activity for different components of the biota, and a greater understanding of the complexities of these eco-hydrologic systems may enhance the ability to describe the ecology of desert ecosystems and their sensitivity to global change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential utilization of summer rains by desert plants
TL;DR: Seasonal changes in the hydrogen isotope ratios of xylem waters were measured to determine water sources used for growth in desert plants of southern Utah to indicate components within the community will differentially responde to the change in precipitation patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Evolution of Plant Ecophysiological Traits: Recent Advances and Future Directions
David D. Ackerly,Susan A. Dudley,Sonia E. Sultan,Johanna Schmitt,James S. Coleman,C. Randall Linder,Darren R. Sandquist,Monica A. Geber,Ann S. Evans,Todd E. Dawson,Martin J. Lechowicz +10 more
TL;DR: Many ecophysiological traits—considered here as all aspects of resource uptake and utilization, including biochemistry, metabolism, gas exchange, leaf structure and function, nutrient and biomass allocation, canopy structure, and growth—are likely to influence fitness and undergo adaptive evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Long‐Term Ungulate Exclusion and Recent Alien Species Control on the Preservation and Restoration of a Hawaiian Tropical Dry Forest
Robert J. Cabin,Stephen G. Weller,David H. Lorence,Timothy Flynn,Ann K. Sakai,Darren R. Sandquist,Lisa J. Hadway +6 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that although ungulate exclusion may be a necessary and critical first step, it is not sufficient to adequately preserve and maintain Hawaii's remaining tropical dry forest remnants.
