Changes in Fire Regimes Since the Last Glacial Maximum: An Assessment Based on a Global Synthesis and Analysis of Charcoal Data

TL;DR: This article synthesized sedimentary charcoal records of biomass burning since the last glacial maximum (LGM) and present global maps showing changes in fire activity for time slices during the past 21,000 years.

Vulnerability of high-latitude soil organic carbon in North America to disturbance

TL;DR: In this article, the vulnerability of the North American high-latitude soil organic carbon (SOC) pool to climate change has been discussed, where the authors divide the current northern highlatitude organic carbon pools into near-surface soils where SOC is affected by seasonal freeze-thaw processes and changes in moisture status, and deeper permafrost and peatland strata down to several tens of meters depth where organic carbon is usually not affected by short-term changes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interpreting recruitment limitation in forests.

TL;DR: It is concluded that greater attention to spatially extensive and longer duration sampling for early life history stages is needed to assess the role of recruitment limitation in forests.
