DOI: 10.1007/s10661-018-7003-x
Abstract: This research proposes a framework for quantitatively differentiating carbon sinks versus sources, utilizing synergistic NIR (near-infrared) and visible signatures acquired from UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle). UAV NIR and visible imagery acquired at 70-m flying altitude… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-018-0367-7
Abstract: Elevated CO2 concentrations increase photosynthesis and, potentially, net ecosystem production (NEP), meaning a greater CO2 uptake. Climate, nutrients and ecosystem structure, however, influence the effect of increasing CO2. Here we analysed global NEP from MACC-II… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-32249-w
Abstract: The loss of natural carbon sinks, such as seagrass meadows, contributes to grenhouse gas emissions and, thus, global warming. Whereas seagrass meadows are declining in temperate and tropical regions, they are expected to expand into… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.14322
Abstract: Mangroves are recognized as one of the richest carbon storage systems. However, the factors regulating carbon sinks in mangrove ecosystems are still unclear, particularly in the subtropical mangroves. The biomass, production, litterfall, detrital export and… read more here.
