The sustainability of life on Earth is under increasing threat due to human-induced climate
change. This perilous change in the Earth's climate is caused by increases in carbon dioxide …

The Global Deal for Nature (GDN) is a time-bound, science-driven plan to save the diversity
and abundance of life on Earth. Pairing the GDN and the Paris Climate Agreement would …

Forests are a substantial terrestrial carbon sink, but anthropogenic changes in land use and
climate have considerably reduced the scale of this system. Remote-sensing estimates to …

The distribution of dryland trees and their density, cover, size, mass and carbon content are
not well known at sub-continental to continental scales,,,,,,,,,,,,–. This information is important …

Trees sustain livelihoods and mitigate climate change but a predominance of trees outside
forests and limited resources make it difficult for many tropical countries to conduct …

To meet the ambitious objectives of biodiversity and climate conventions, the international
community requires clarity on how these objectives can be operationalized spatially and …

In this review, we present the main approaches developed around satellite and airborne
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery. The great range of SAR imagery applications is …

Having the ability to make accurate assessments of above ground biomass (AGB) at high
spatial resolution is invaluable for the management of dryland forest resources in areas at …

The terrestrial forest carbon pool is poorly quantified, in particular in regions with low forest
inventory capacity. By combining multiple satellite observations of synthetic aperture radar …

Quantifying forest aboveground biomass (AGB) is essential for elucidating the global carbon
cycle and the response of forest ecosystems to climate change. Over the past five decades …
