Bioclimatic Zones for the Antipodes - and Beyond?
Introduction Bioclimatic zone systems aim to define reproducible sets of named biogeographical cells that facilitate global comparisons of ecological data. Zones based on extant vegetation loosely reflect contemporary climate, but are vitiated by climate history, chance establishment, genetic potential of local species, terrain instability, intrazonal soils, and biotic disturbance. The system o...
متن کاملBioclimatic Extremes Drive Forest Mortality in Southwest, Western Australia
Extreme and persistent reductions in annual precipitation and an increase in the mean diurnal temperature range have resulted in patch scale forest mortality following the summer of 2010–2011 within the Forest study area near Perth, Western Australia. The impacts of 20 bioclimatic indicators derived from temperature, precipitation and of actual and potential evapotranspiration are quantified. W...
متن کاملBioclimatic Models in Entomology
Because climate has such a profound effect on the distribution and abundance of invertebrates, quantification of climatic influences on insects has been of considerable interest to entomologists for well over a century. While simple predictive models were developed early on, easier access to computers in the 1970s resulted in the development of computer based models to predict the biotic potent...
متن کاملIntelligent Bioclimatic Architectural Design
To produce intelligent bioclimatic architectural design software one must put together many different modules, such as, architectural design programs, bioclimatic design programs and expert consultation systems. The problem is very complex and many different technologies must be integrated. A first approach is to produce a module-based system, where every module provides its output to the next ...
متن کاملGIMMS-NDVI based mapping of the growing season and bioclimatic zones in Fennoscandia and neighbouring parts of NW Russia
The data used in the present study is a 21-year GIMMS-NDVI dataset, surface data on phenology of birch, and temperature data from meteorological stations, all for the period 1982 to 2002. For each pixel a 21-year mean and a mean of peak NDVI value was computed. Threshold values related to this mean, and mean of peak NDVI values, which show the best correlations with the phenological field data ...
