Abstract: A significant fraction of the terrestrial biosphere comprises biomes containing tree–grass mixtures. Forecasting vegetation dynamics in these environments requires a thorough understanding of how trees and grasses use and compete for key belowground resources. There… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2021.112440
Abstract: Abstract Many satellite missions rely on modeling approaches to acquire global or regional evapotranspiration (ET) products. However, a current challenge in ET modeling lies in dealing with sub-pixel heterogeneity, as models often assume homogeneous conditions… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/agronomy10091247
Abstract: Energy plantations create new habitats in agricultural landscapes with species compositions different from those in forests or farmlands. The purpose of our nine-year research project (2010–2018) was to evaluate the dependence of weed-species richness and… read more here.
