Regional vegetation die-off in response to global-change-type drought.

• David D. Breshears, Neil S. Cobb, +10 authors Clifton W. Meyer
• Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences…
• 2005

Future drought is projected to occur under warmer temperature conditions as climate change progresses, referred to here as global-change-type drought, yet quantitative assessments of the triggers and… (More)

Tree die-off in response to global change- type drought: mortality insights from a decade of plant water potential measurements

• David D. Breshears, Orrin B. Myers, +5 authors William T. Pockman
• 2009

Global climate change is projected to produce warmer, longer, and more frequent droughts, referred to here as “global change-type droughts”, which have the potential to trigger widespread tree… (More)

Foliar absorption of intercepted rainfall improves woody plant water status most during drought.

• David D. Breshears, Nathan G. McDowell, +4 authors Karen McCarthy Brown
• Ecology
• 2008

A large proportion of rainfall in dryland ecosystems is intercepted by plant foliage and is generally assumed to evaporate to the atmosphere or drip onto the soil surface without being absorbed. We… (More)

Spatial distributions of understory light along the grassland/forest continuum: effects of cover, height, and spatial pattern of tree canopies

• Scott N. Martens, David D. Breshears, Clifton W. Meyer
• 2000

The understory light environment is a key determinant of vegetation pattern and ecosystem processes, and varies spatially perhaps more than any resource used by plants. Understory light varies along… (More)

Soil carbon heterogeneity in piñon–juniper woodland patches: Effect of woody plant variation on neighboring intercanopies is not detectable

• David K. Reiley, David D. Breshears, Paul H. Zedler, Michael H. Ebinger, Clifton W. Meyer
• 2009

Soil carbon often varies significantly among vegetation patch types, but less known is how the size and species of plants in the tree canopy patches and the cover types of the intercanopy patches… (More)
