TL;DR: Niche complementarity and positive species interactions appear to play a role in generating diversity-productivity relationships within sites in addition to sampling from the species pool.
Book
Climate and plant distribution
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a survey of the distribution of taxa in the world of climate and vegetation in terms of the number of species in each taxa and the scale of the scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
The global distribution of ecosystems in a world without fire
TL;DR: Comparison of global 'fire off' simulations with landcover and treecover maps show that vast areas of humid C(4) grasslands and savannas, especially in South America and Africa, have the climate potential to form forests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the terrestrial carbon cycle, future plant geography and climate‐carbon cycle feedbacks using five Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs)
Stephan Sitch,Chris Huntingford,Nicola Gedney,Peter Levy,Mark R. Lomas,Shilong Piao,Richard Betts,P. Ciais,Peter M. Cox,Pierre Friedlingstein,Chris D. Jones,Iain Colin Prentice,F. I. Woodward +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test the ability of five Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), forced with observed climatology and atmospheric CO2, to model the contemporary global carbon cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stomatal numbers are sensitive to increases in CO2 from pre-industrial levels
TL;DR: Experiments have shown that the combination of this previously unreported response ofStomatal density to the level of CO2, with the known responses of stomatal aperture2, cause water use efficiency to be much lower than expected at low levels ofCO2 and over a wide range of humidities.
