“…An additional potential source of error arises from our assumption of unchanging future vegetation cover. Rising CO 2 concentrations, increasing temperatures, and precipitation changes will combine to cause a complex assortment of vegetation changes across the landscape in the decades ahead (e.g., Kerns et al, ; Lenihan et al, ). Those vegetation changes will affect water yield, either positively or negatively in specific locations, potentially altering the basinwide yields we estimated based on the existing vegetation cover.…”

“…Dynamic vegetation models (DVMs) in particular simulate establishment, growth, competition, and mortality, making them a useful tool for understanding how vegetation species distributions and associated carbon stocks respond to climate forcings. DVMs, being process‐based, can be applied at global (Friedlingstein et al, ; Sitch et al, ) to local scales (Kim et al, ) and have been used to project changes in vegetation distributions and associated carbon consequences in the western United States (Bachelet et al, ; Jiang et al, ; Kerns et al, ; Rehfeldt et al, ; Shafer et al, ).…”

“…LUCC, a direct reflection of the interaction between humans and nature, is a complex process of the combined effects of natural, social and economic factors and is a basic problem for population, resource and environmentally sustainable developments [1][2][3][4]. The spatial and temporal characteristics, driving forces and environmental effects of LUCC are three focuses of LUCC research [5].…”
