Arid and semiarid environments are characterized by low water availability (eg, in soil and
atmosphere), high air temperature, and irregularity in the spatio-temporal distribution of …

Arid and semi-arid environments correspond to one-third of the Earth's terrestrial surface. In
these environments, precipitation is an essential and limiting element for vegetation growth …

Land degradation (LD) is one of the most catastrophic outcomes of long-lasting drought
events and anthropogenic activities. Assessing climate and human-induced impacts on land …

Forest ecosystems sequester large amounts of atmospheric CO2, and the contribution from
seasonally dry tropical forests is not negligible. Thus, the objective of this study was to …

Seasonally dry tropical forests are among the most important biomes regarding regional and
global hydrological and carbon fluxes. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the …

The semiarid region of Brazil undergoes constant changes in land use due to the process of
deforestation and high water seasonality, represented among other variables by a decline in …

The spatio-temporal assessment of water and carbon fluxes in Brazil's Northeast region
(NEB) allows for a better understanding of these surface flux patterns in areas with different …

The energy balance closure obtained through the eddy covariance method is a problem
which persists, despite advances in the development and improvement of instruments and …

The in-situ quantification of turbulent flux and evapotranspiration (ET) is necessary to
monitor crop performance in stressful environments. Although cacti can withstand stressful …

Many remote sensing‐based evapotranspiration (RSBET) algorithms have been proposed
in the past decades and evaluated using flux tower data, mainly over North America and …
