Vegetation greenness has been increasing globally since at least 1981, when satellite
technology enabled large-scale vegetation monitoring. The greening phenomenon, together …

This review surveys the basic theories, observational methods, satellite algorithms, and land
surface models for terrestrial evapotranspiration, E (or λE, ie, latent heat flux), including a …

Despite the growing interest in predicting global and regional trends in vegetation
productivity in response to a changing climate, changes in water constraint on vegetation …

The enhanced vegetation productivity driven by increased concentrations of carbon dioxide
(CO2)[ie, the CO2 fertilization effect (CFE)] sustains an important negative feedback on …

Arctic warming can influence tundra ecosystem function with consequences for climate
feedbacks, wildlife and human communities. Yet ecological change across the Arctic tundra …

Revegetation of degraded ecosystems provides opportunities for carbon sequestration and
bioenergy production,. However, vegetation expansion in water-limited areas creates …

The mitigation potential of vegetation-driven biophysical effects is strongly influenced by the
background climate and will therefore be influenced by global warming. Based on an …

Abstract Vegetation in Northern Hemisphere, being sensitive to climate change, plays an
important role in the carbon cycles between land and the atmosphere. The response of …

With accumulation of carbon cycle observations and model developments over the past
decades, exploring interannual variation (IAV) of terrestrial carbon cycle offers the …

Land ecosystems absorb on average 30 per cent of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2)
emissions, thereby slowing the increase of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. Year-to …
