Both the ecological and social dimensions of fisheries are being affected by climate change. As a result, policymakers, managers, scientists and fishing communities are seeking guidance on how to holistically build resilience to climate change. Numerous studies have highlighted key attributes of resilience in fisheries, yet concrete examples that explicitly link these attributes to social‐ecological outcomes are lacking. To be...

Aim Fresh carbon (C) inputs to the soil can have important consequences for the decomposition rates of soil organic matter (priming effect), thereby impacting the delicate global C balance at the soil–atmosphere interface. Yet, the environmental factors that control soil priming effect intensity remain poorly understood at a global scale. Location Global. Time period 1980–2020. Major taxa studied Soil priming effect intensity....

Mosquitoes are ecologically and economically important invertebrates that transmit numerous diseases and are an integral part of the food web in many terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Despite their importance, there have been no central repositories for occurrence or abundance records of mosquitoes in the United States. To enable research dependent on the geographic distribution and abundance of mosquito species, we built a...

This paper presents an empirical model of net ecosystem CO 2 exchange (NEE) developed for a subarctic fen near Churchill, Manitoba. The model with observed data helps explain the interannual variability in growing season NEE. Five years of tower‐flux data are used to test and examine the seasonal behaviour of the model simulations. Processes controlling the observed interannual variability of CO 2 exchange at the fen are exami...

Summary Landscape‐ and community‐level CO 2 measurements were made at a subarctic sedge fen near Churchill Manitoba during the 1997 growing season. Climatic conditions were warmer and drier than the 30‐y normal. Landscape‐scale micrometeorological measurements indicated that the wetland gained 49 g CO 2 m −2 during the growing season. Chamber‐scale measurements from the main vegetation community types showed that small hummock...
