A global network of long‐term carbon and water flux measurements has existed since the
late 1990s. With its representative sampling of the terrestrial biosphere's climate and …

In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

Temperate-and high-latitude forests have been shown to contribute a carbon sink in the
Northern Hemisphere, but fewer studies have addressed the carbon balance of the …

Stocks of soil organic carbon represent a large component of the carbon cycle that may
participate in climate change feedbacks, particularly on decadal and centennial timescales …

The Community Land Model is the land component of the Community Climate System
Model. Here, we describe a broad set of model improvements and additions that have been …

Phenology, by controlling the seasonal activity of vegetation on the land surface, plays a
fundamental role in regulating photosynthesis and other ecosystem processes, as well as …

Abstract Until recently, continuous monitoring of global vegetation productivity has not been
possible because of technological limitations. This article introduces a new satellite-driven …

Emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and of reactive gases such as sulphur
dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, which lead to the formation of …

A highly automated algorithm called vegetation change tracker (VCT) has been developed
for reconstructing recent forest disturbance history using Landsat time series stacks (LTSS) …

Mosses in northern ecosystems are ubiquitous components of plant communities, and
strongly influence nutrient, carbon and water cycling. We use literature review, synthesis and …
