為進(jìn)一步推動(dòng)學(xué)院科研高質(zhì)量發(fā)展，我院推出“城市與環(huán)境學(xué)院博雅講壇”系列活動(dòng)，通過(guò)開展系列學(xué)術(shù)講座，與同行共同分享學(xué)科前沿，交流學(xué)科知識(shí)、理論與信息，為師生提供一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)交流、思想碰撞的平臺(tái)。本期講壇特邀澳大利亞西悉尼大學(xué)霍克斯伯里環(huán)境研究所的Belinda Medlyn杰出教授作為主講人。

報(bào)告簡(jiǎn)介：

The function and distribution of terrestrial vegetation globally has been strongly shaped by climate over millennia. Now that climate change, driven by rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations, is well under way, we can expect further major changes in vegetation – but to what extent can we predict what those changes will look like? What do we know, and more importantly, what do we still need to know, to understand how vegetation is likely to respond and shift as global temperatures rise?

In this talk I will present our group’s attempts to understand and predict vegetation change, using Australian vegetation as a case study. I will first summarise some recent experimental research on the effects of global change on vegetation, particularly the effects of CO2 enrichment and intense drought. I’ll then discuss how we are using this research to predict potential future trajectories for vegetation dynamics, and highlight the critical gaps in our knowledge.
