DOI: 10.1029/2024gl108176
Abstract: The two phases of El‐Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influence both regional and global terrestrial vegetation productivity on inter‐annual scales. However, the major drivers for the regional vegetation productivity and their controlling strengths during different phases of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16522
Abstract: Evidence for the multifaceted responses of terrestrial ecosystems has been shown by the weakening of CO2 fertilization‐induced and warming‐controlled productivity gains. The intricate relationship between vegetation productivity and various environmental controls still remains elusive spatially.… read more here.
