DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2063
Abstract: Topographic variables such as slope and elevation partially explain spatial variations in aboveground biomass (AGB) within landscapes. Human activities that impact vegetation, such as cattle grazing and shifting cultivation, often follow topographic features and also… read more here.

The predictability of near‐term forest biomass change in boreal North America
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecosphere"
DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.4737
Abstract: Climate change is driving substantial changes in North American boreal forests, including changes in productivity, mortality, recruitment, and biomass. Despite the importance for carbon budgets and informing management decisions, there is a lack of near‐term… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.70054
Abstract: Abstract Biochar application to soil has been promoted to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, yet significant uncertainty exists in quantifying soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from biochar‐amended soils. We evaluated soil… read more here.
