A new paper titled “Continental-scale quantification of post-fire vegetation greenness recovery in temperate and boreal North America” was published in Remote Sensing of Environment by Yang et al., 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2017.07.022 Knowledge and information of post-fire vegetation recovery are essential for our understanding of ecosystem stability and resilience in response to present and future disturbances. Although…Continue Reading Fire-induced changes in 10-year average NDVI during 2006–2015 (Yang et al., 2017)
Preindustrial nitrous oxide emissions (Xu et al., 2017)
A new paper titled “Preindustrial nitrous oxide emissions from the land biosphere estimated by using a global biogeochemistry model” was published in Climate of the Past by Xu et al., 2017. https://www.clim-past.net/13/977/2017/ To accurately assess how increased global nitrous oxide (N2O) emission has affected the climate system requires a robust estimation of the preindustrial N2O…Continue Reading Preindustrial nitrous oxide emissions (Xu et al., 2017)
