Land-use conversion and changing soil carbon stocks in China's 'Grain-for-Green' Program: a synthesis.

abstract：:Climate variation has been linked to historical and predicted future distributions and dynamics of wildlife populations. However, demographic mechanisms underlying these changes remain poorly understood. Here, we assessed variation and trends in climate (annual snowfall and spring temperature anomalies) and avian demo...
