Bioenergy deployment offers significant potential for climate change mitigation, but also
carries considerable risks. In this review, we bring together perspectives of various …

Background Many mangrove ecosystems are periodically exposed to high velocity winds
and surge from tropical cyclones, and often recover with time and continue to provide …

The Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector encompasses managed
ecosystems and offers significant mitigation opportunities while delivering food, wood and …

The direct biophysical effects of fine-scale tree cover changes on temperature are not well
understood. Here, we show how land surface temperature responds to subgrid gross tree …

Executive Summary Agriculture, Forestry, and Other Land Use (AFOLU) is unique among
the sectors considered in this volume, since the mitigation potential is derived from both an …

Forests provide innumerable ecological, societal and climatological benefits, yet they are
vulnerable to drought and temperature extremes. Climate-driven forest die-off from drought …

Chemical weathering is an integral part of both the rock and carbon cycles and is being
affected by changes in land use, particularly as a result of agricultural practices such as …

About one‐third of North America is forested. These forests are of incalculable value to
human society in terms of harvested resources and ecosystem services and are sensitive to …

Abstract MODIS BRDF/NBAR/Albedo products (MCD43) have been widely used for a variety
of land surface studies since 2000 (eg, for climate and biosphere modeling, radiative forcing …

The biophysical feedbacks of forest fire on Earth's surface radiative budget remain uncertain
at the global scale. Using satellite observations, we show that fire-induced forest loss …
