Insect disturbance are important agents of change in forest ecosystems around the globe,
yet their spatial and temporal distribution and dynamics are not well understood. Remote …

Background The accuracy in estimating forest ecosystem carbon storage has drawn
extensive attention of researchers in the field of global climate change. However …

Research indicates that urban ecosystems can store large amounts of carbon. However, few
studies have examined how the spatial features of park greenspace affect its carbon …

Remote sensing (RS) studies aiming at mapping forest biomass typically rely on ground-
based estimates of biomass for calibration or validation. Whatever the biophysical variable …

Litterfall is a major, yet poorly studied, process within forest ecosystems globally. It is
important for carbon dynamics, edaphic communities, and maintaining site fertility. Reliable …

Maps of aboveground forest biomass based on different input data and modelling
approaches have been recently produced for Europe, opening up the possibility for several …

Background and aims Forest management towards increased carbon (C) sequestration has
repeatedly been suggested as a “natural climate solution”. We evaluated the potential of …

Chinese subtropical forests contain a diversity of tree species and exhibit a high carbon (C)
sequestration capacity, but biomass and C stock assessments in subtropical secondary …

FORMIT-M is a widely applicable, open-access, simple and flexible, climate-sensitive forest
management simulator requiring only standard forest inventory data as input. It combines a …

Increased wildfire activity in the Himalayan Mountains due to climate change may place
rural livelihoods at risk, yet potential climate change effects on forest fires in this region are …
