Evapotranspiration (ET)—the distribution and partitioning of which is strongly mediated by
vegetation—is central to the water, energy and carbon cycles. In this Review, we examine …

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 …

Critical ecological restoration and reconstruction information can be presented by
distinguishing the vegetation dynamics due to human activities and climate changes and by …

Vegetation is a crucial component of terrestrial ecosystems, and its changes are driven
mainly by a combination of climate change and human activities. This paper aims to reveal …

Purpose of review Forests are frequently exposed to natural disturbances, which are likely to
increase with global change, and may jeopardize the delivery of ecosystem services. Mixed …

The sunlight received by plants is affected by cloudiness and pollution. Future changes in
cloud cover will differ among regions, while aerosol concentrations are expected to continue …

As the lifetime of regional flux networks approach twenty years, there is a growing number of
papers that have published long term records (5 years or more) of net carbon fluxes …

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 …

Accurately monitoring global vegetation dynamics with modern remote sensing is critical for
understanding the functions and processes of the biosphere and its interactions with the …

MODIS global evapotranspiration (ET) products by Mu et al.[Mu, Q., Heinsch, FA, Zhao, M.,
Running, SW (2007). Development of a global evapotranspiration algorithm based on …
