Abstract Changes in terrestrial gross primary productivity (GPP) caused by rapid
urbanization may result in negative effects on ecosystem services and ecosystem health …

Ecosystem services provided by urban forests are increasingly included in municipal-level
responses to climate change. However, the ecosystem functions that generate these …

Urban and rural vegetation are affected by both climate change and human activities, but the
role of urbanization in vegetation productivity is unclear given the dual impacts. Here, we …

The normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) is the most widely used vegetation index
for monitoring vegetation vigor and cover. As NDVI time series are usually derived at coarse …

As cities strive for ambitious increases in tree canopy cover and reductions in anthropogenic
volatile organic compound (AVOC) emissions, accurate assessments of the impacts of …

Cities are beginning to monitor atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2) to assess the efficacy of
their climate policies. However, changes in anthropogenic CO 2 emissions must be …

The objective of this study was to examine the impacts of urbanization on gross primary
productivity (GPP) and the interactions between carbon and water fluxes, including …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) quantification is critical for assessing city‐level carbon emissions and
sustainable urban development. While urban vegetation has the potential to provide …

Urban vegetation experiences multiple natural and human impacts during urbanization,
including land conversion, local environmental factors, and human management, which may …

1. Background Globally, urban landscapes account for a small (377,000-533,000 km2) but
growing fraction of terrestrial land area (Ouyang et al., 2019) and contribute a …
