‘Natural Climate Solutions’ (NCS) have recently gained attention as a set of highly promising pathways for climate change mitigation through activities taking place in natural and modified ecosystems. NCS falls within the broader scope of “nature-based solutions” (NbS) and ecosystem-related approa...
SCIENCE & societyLAND managementEFFECT of climate on human beingsIn western North America, wildfire is a critical component of many ecosystems and a natural hazard that can result in catastrophic losses of human lives and property. Billions of dollars are spent suppressing wildfires each year. In ...
natural-, or climate-exacerbated disturbances8,9. Evaluating the stability—or instability—of NCS carbon storage is necessary before they can become an effective global approach to fight climate change. To date, studies of NCS mitigation potential do not explicitly account for disturbances like wildfi...
Climate change beliefs 1. Introduction Despite a strong consensus within the scientific community on contemporaneous global climate change, public opinions on its existence and anthropogenic causes diverge (Cook et al., 2013). Nonetheless, the belief in the existence of climate change (i.e. the acc...

Biogeographic regions reflect the organization of biotas over long evolutionary timescales but face alterations from recent anthropogenic climate change. Here, we model species distributions for 189,269 vascular plant species of the world under present and future climates and use this data to generate bi...

Perhaps another source of confusion is driven by the fact that the NCS concept builds upon a long history of conservation science and practice but focuses the framework on measurable climate change mitigation. For example, the United Nations’ reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation...
