The extreme drought event that occurred in Western Europe during 2003 highlighted the
need to understand the key processes that may allow trees and stands to overcome such …

Abstract Background In the Mediterranean climate, plants have evolved under conditions of
low soil-water and nutrient availabilities and have acquired a series of adaptive traits that, in …

The leaf economics spectrum, and the global spectrum of plant forms and functions revealed
fundamental axes of variation in plant traits, which represent different ecological strategies …

The Global Land Evaporation Amsterdam Model (GLEAM) is a set of algorithms dedicated to
the estimation of terrestrial evaporation and root-zone soil moisture from satellite data. Ever …

Soil organic carbon harbors three times as much carbon as Earth's atmosphere, and its
decomposition is a potentially large climate change feedback and major source of …

Terrestrial photosynthesis is the largest and one of the most uncertain fluxes in the global
carbon cycle. We find that near‐infrared reflectance of vegetation (NIRV), a remotely sensed …

Several global gross primary production (GPP) and evapotranspiration (ET) remote sensing
products exist, mainly provided by machine-learning (eg MPI-BGC) and semi-empirical (eg …

Increasing vapor pressure deficit (VPD) increases atmospheric demand for water. While
increased evapotranspiration (ET) in response to increased atmospheric demand seems …

FLUXNET is a global network of micrometeorological flux measurement sites that measure
the exchanges of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy between the biosphere and …

The energy balance at most surface-atmosphere flux research sites remains unclosed. The
mechanisms underlying the discrepancy between measured energy inputs and outputs …
