Climate Change 2007: The Physical Science Basis Summary for Policymakers:
Abstract: The Working Group I contribution to the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report describes progress in understanding of the
human and natural drivers of climate change1, observed climate change, climate processes and attribution, and
estimates of projected future climate change. It builds upon past IPCC assessments and incorporates new findings from the past six years of research. Scientific progress since the TAR is based upon large amounts of new and more
comprehensive data, more sophisticated analyses of data, improvements in understanding of processes and their
simulation in models, and more extensive exploration of uncertainty ranges.

Tracing carbon and oxygen isotope signals from newly assimilated sugars in the leaves to the tree-ring archive.
TL;DR: An integrated overview of the fate of carbon and oxygen isotope signals within the model tree species P. sylvestris provides a novel physiological basis for the interpretation of delta(13)C and delta(18)O in tree-ring ecology.

Climate change impacts on northern Australian rangeland livestock carrying capacity: a review of issues
G. M. McKeon,Grant Stone,Jozef Syktus,J. O. Carter,Neil Flood,D. G. Ahrens,Dorine Bruget,Chris Chilcott,David H. Cobon,Robyn Cowley,Steven Crimp,G. W. Fraser,S.M. Howden,P. W. Johnston,J. G. Ryan,Chris Stokes,K. A. Day +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the results of a sensitivity study of climate change impacts on forage production across the rangelands, and discuss the more general issues facing rangeland enterprises associated with climate change, such as "known uncertainties" and adaptation responses (e.g. use of climate risk assessment).
An integrative review of the built environment discipline's role in the development of society's resilience to disasters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an integrative review of the literature to explore the nature of the built environment discipline's potential role in the development of society's resilience to disasters.

Life cycle comparison of hydrothermal liquefaction and lipid extraction pathways to renewable diesel from algae.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the energy consumption and emissions of hydrogel liquefaction (HTL) and lipid extraction (LE) for renewable diesel (RD) production by modeling all essential operations from nutrient manufacturing through fuel use.
Eucalypt plantations and climate change
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors assess the vulnerability of eucalypt plantations to climate change, which is a function of potential impact, related to exposure and sensitivity, and adaptive capacity.
