Soil moisture is an important indicator of the land surface environment. The combination of
land surface temperature (LST) and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) could …

Forest dynamics are characterized by both continuous (ie, growth) and discontinuous (ie,
disturbance) changes. Change detection techniques that use optical remotely sensed data …

Climatic warming is expected to particularly alter greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from
soils in cold ecosystems such as tundra. We used 1 m2 open-top chambers (OTCs) during …

The effects of disturbance on spatial patterns and species interactions provide critical
information on community structure and species coexistence. Two standard plots of 1-ha …

Key message Forty years after clear-cutting mixed old-growth forest (broadleaf/Korean pine)
in the Changbai Mountain area (Northeast China), a mixed forest with natural broadleaf …

This study examined the temporal variation of the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index
(NDVI) and its relationship with climatic factors in the Changbai Mountain Natural Reserve …

By using an integrated approach, tsunami affected land, vegetation and inhabitants were
assessed to evaluate the potential to restore and protect coastal land in the context of Kyoto …

As demonstrated in prior studies, InSAR holds great potential for land cover classification,
especially considering its wide coverage and transparency to climatic conditions. In addition …

High mountain forests (HMFs) have an important significance in forest ecosystems, but the
benefits from such ecosystems have been compromised in recent years. In Turkey, HMFs …

The transnational area of Changbai Mountain (TACM) is crucial to sustainable development
in Northeast Asia owing to its abundant forest, which helps in maintaining biodiversity and …
