Climate change, phenology, and phenological control of vegetation feedbacks to the climate system

TLDR
In this paper, the authors discuss the environmental drivers of phenology, and the impacts of climate change on phenology in different biomes, and assess the potential impact on these feedbacks of shifts in phenology driven by climate change.

On underestimation of global vulnerability to tree mortality and forest die‐off from hotter drought in the Anthropocene

TL;DR: In this article, the authors identify ten contrasting perspectives that shape the vulnerability debate but have not been discussed collectively and present a set of global vulnerability drivers that are known with high confidence: (1) droughts eventually occur everywhere; (2) warming produces hotter Droughts; (3) atmospheric moisture demand increases nonlinearly with temperature during drought; (4) mortality can occur faster in hotter Drought, consistent with fundamental physiology; (5) shorter Drought can become lethal under warming, increasing the frequency of lethal Drought; and (6) mortality happens rapidly

Plant phenology and global climate change: Current progresses and challenges

TL;DR: It is suggested that future studies should primarily focus on using new observation tools to improve the understanding of tropical plant phenology, on improving process-based phenology modeling, and on the scaling of phenology from species to landscape-level.

Forests and Climate Change: Forcings, Feedbacks, and the Climate Benefits of Forests

TL;DR: Interdisciplinary science that integrates knowledge of the many interacting climate services of forests with the impacts of global change is necessary to identify and understand as yet unexplored feedbacks in the Earth system and the potential of forests to mitigate climate change.
