DOI: 10.1002/2016jd025892
Abstract: Light scattered from surfaces is partly polarized, which has implications for remote sensing of vegetation. To study the contribution of polarized light to multi-angular reflectance over vegetation covers, we produced a hyperspectral bidirectional polarized reflectance… read more here.

A coupled vegetation/sediment transport model for dryland environments
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"
DOI: 10.1002/2016jf004096
Abstract: Dryland regions are characterized by patchy vegetation, erodible surfaces, and erosive aeolian processes. Understanding how these constituent factors interact and shape landscape evolution is critical for managing potential environmental and anthropogenic impacts in drylands. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017jg003914
Abstract: Earth System Models (ESMs) have been widely used for projecting global vegetation carbon dynamics, yet how well ESMs performed for simulating vegetation carbon density remains untested. We compiled observational data of vegetation carbon density from… read more here.
