Shifting dominant periods in extreme climate impacts under global warming Nature Communications - This work investigates changes in regularity of crop failure, heatwave and wildfire exposure for different future climate scenarios. Major shifts in dominant periods are...

Under pre-industrial conditions dominant periods in crop failures emerge in 28% of cropland. The number of these dominant periods increased by 2–13% during the transition from the pre-industrial era to the anthropocene. Read more in Nature Communications: rdcu.be/eOoiQ

Humans have depleted global terrestrial carbon stocks by a quarter Land use has diminished global vegetation and soil carbon stocks, contributing substantially to global warming. Our research provides a consistent and unprecedentedly detailed global estimate of the t...
