Seasonal Lifting Condensation Level Trends: Implications of Warming and Reforestation in Appalachia’s Deciduous Forest by Evan Kutta, Jason A. Hubbart

“…To advance understanding, hourly observations of barometric pressure and ambient and dew point temperatures from 1948 to 2017 were acquired for seven airports located at 40.21° N (average) and crossing the Allegheny Mountains of the northeastern United States. Daily LCL trends were quantified, and large positive (2.3 m yr⁻¹) and negative (−1.3 m yr⁻¹) LCL trends were found to be greatest near seasonal transition dates (17 April and 9 November 2022). …”

Modelling cross-scale relationships between climate, hydrology, and individual animals: Generating scenarios for stream salamanders by Philippe eGirard, Jana eLevison, Lael eParrott, Marie eLarocque, Marie-Audray eOuellet, David M. Green

“…Here, we demonstrate how a hybrid modelling approach can be used to assess the effect of cross-scale interactions on the survival of the Allegheny Mountain Dusky Salamander (Desmognathus ochrophaeus) in response to changes in temperature and water availability induced by climate change at the northern limits of its distribution. …”
