Data from large-scale biological inventories are essential for understanding and managing Earth's ecosystems.
The Forest Inventory and Analysis Program (FIA) of the U.S. Forest Service is the largest biological inventory in
North America; however, the FIA inventory recently changed from an amalgam of different approaches to a
nationally-standardized approach in...

Climate change is expected to change the distribution of species. For long-lived, sessile
species such as trees, tracking the warming climate depends on seedling colonization of
newly favorable areas. We compare the distribution of seedlings and mature trees for all but
the rarest tree species in California, Oregon and Washington,...

Budburst is a key adaptive trait that can help us understand how plants respond to a changing climate from the molecular to landscape scale. Despite this, acquisition of budburst data is constrained by a lack of information at the plant scale on the environmental stimuli associated with the release of...

Species' distributions across the landscape are perhaps the least understood yet most conspicuous features of life on earth. Ecologists have long studied species' distributions; yet, many questions remain about why species occur where they do. Such questions persist largely because species' distributions are complex systems with challenging properties like non-linearity,...
