Large lianas as hyperdynamic elements of the tropical forest canopy [PDF]
, 2005 Lianas (woody vines) are an important component of lowland tropical forests. We report large liana and tree inventory and dynamics data from Amazonia over periods of up to 24 years, making this the longest geographically extensive study of liana ...

Space-time quantification of aboveground net primary productivity service supply capacity in high Andean bofedales using remote sensors [PDF]
Journal of Water and Land Development, 2023 The aboveground net primary productivity ( ANPP) of bofedales is one of the most important indicators for the provision of ecosystem services in the high Andean areas. In the case of bofedales, the evaluation of the ANPP supply capacity as a service on a

Global evidence on nitrogen saturation of terrestrial ecosystem net primary productivity
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 The continually increasing nitrogen (N) deposition is expected to increase ecosystem aboveground net primary production (ANPP) until it exceeds plant N demand, causing a nonlinear response and N saturation for ANPP.

Primary Productivity and Precipitation-Use Efficiency in Temperate Grassland in the Loess Plateau of China. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Clarifying spatial variations in aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and precipitation-use efficiency (PUE) of grasslands is critical for effective prediction of the response of terrestrial ecosystem carbon and water cycle to future climate ...

Above-ground biomass and productivity in a rain forest of eastern South America [PDF]
, 2008 : The dynamics of tropical forest woody plants was studied at the Nouragues Field Station, central French Guiana. Stem density, basal area, above-ground biomass and above-ground net primary productivity, including the contribution of litterfall, were ...

Assessing vegetation structure and ANPP dynamics in a grassland–shrubland Chihuahuan ecotone using NDVI–rainfall relationships [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2015 Abstract. Climate change and the widespread alteration of natural habitats are major drivers of vegetation change in drylands. In the Chihuahuan Desert, large areas of grasslands dominated by perennial grass species have transitioned over the last 150 years to shrublands dominated by woody species, accompanied by accelerated water and wind erosion ...
