Savannas have complex, discontinuous woody vegetation structures that vary greatly in
vertical and spatial arrangement and change due to climatic, ecological and management …

Two recent global maps of tree restoration potential have identified vast regions where tree
cover could be increased, ranging from 0.9 to 2.3 billion hectares. Both maps, however …

Reliable estimates of savanna vegetation constituents (ie, woody and herbaceous
vegetation) are essential as they are both responders and drivers of global change. The …

We investigated the potential of hyperspectral remote sensing to estimate aboveground
biomass (AGB) over the Brazilian savannas (Cerrado), the second-largest source of carbon …

The tropical savanna in Brazil known as the Cerrado covers circa 23% of the Brazilian
territory, but only 3% of this area is protected. High rates of deforestation and degradation in …

Global savannas are the third largest carbon sink with large human populations being highly
dependent on their ecosystem services. However, savannas are changing rapidly due to …

Savannas cover more than 20% of the Earth and account for the third largest stock of global
aboveground biomass yet estimates of their above ground biomass density (AGBD) are very …

This study introduces a novel approach for map** annual fractional vegetation cover in
