Journal Article
Fletcher, M.-S., Cadd, H. R., Mariani, M., Hall, T. L., & Wood, S. W. (2020). The role of species composition in the emergence of alternate vegetation states in a temperate rainforest system. Landscape Ecology, 35(10), 2275–2285. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10980-020-01110-9

Context: Forest systems are dynamic and can alternate between alternative stable states in response to climate, disturbance and internal abiotic and biotic conditions. Switching between states depends on the crossing of critical thresholds and the es...

Climate change reduces resilience to fire in subalpine rainforests (2019)
Journal Article
Mariani, M., Fletcher, M.-S., Haberle, S., Chin, H., Zawadzki, A., & Jacobsen, G. (2019). Climate change reduces resilience to fire in subalpine rainforests. Global Change Biology, 25(6), 2030-2042. https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.14609

Climate change is affecting the distribution of species and the functioning of ecosystems. For species that are slow growing and poorly dispersed, climate change can force a lag between the distributions of species and the geographic distributions of...

Millennial-scale latitudinal shifts in the southern westerly winds (SWW) drive changes in Southern Ocean upwelling, leading to changes in atmospheric CO2 levels, thereby affecting the global climate and carbon cycle. Our aim here is to understand whe... Read More about Centennial-scale trends in the Southern Annular Mode revealed by hemisphere-wide fire and hydroclimatic trends over the past 2400 years.
