Aims The field of ecohydrology is providing new theoretical frameworks and methodological
approaches for understanding the complex interactions and feedbacks between vegetation …

Aboveground biomass (AGB; Mg/ha) is defined in this study as a biomass of growing stock
trees greater than 2.5 cm in diameter at breast height (dbh) for stands> 5 years and all trees …

Roads and topography can determine patterns of land use and distribution of forest cover,
particularly in tropical regions. We evaluated how road density, land use, and topography …

This paper evaluates the impact of protected areas on land-cover clearing, using a metadata
analysis of information on 49 locations from 22 countries. Protected areas had significantly …

Landscape ecology, inter alia, addresses the question as to how altered landscape patterns
affect the distribution, persistence, and abundance of a species. Landscape ecology plays …

Ecology involves the investigation of organisms and their environmental setting. Generally,
such investigation requires spatially explicit data, given the basic need for knowledge about …

The age-dependent variability of ecosystem carbon (C) fluxes was assessed by measuring
the net ecosystem exchange of C (NEE) in five managed forest stands in northern …

Carbon dioxide fluxes were examined over the growing seasons of 2002 and 2003 from 14
different sites in Upper Midwest (USA) to assess spatial variability of ecosystem–atmosphere …

Remote sensing and GIS are increasingly used as tools for monitoring and managing
forests. Remotely sensed and GIS data are now the data sources of choice for capturing …

Deforestation and fragmentation are important concerns in managing and conserving
tropical forests and have global significance. In the Indian context, in the last one century …
