The role of land cover change in Arctic-Boreal greening and browning trends [PDF]
Many studies have used time series of satellite-derived vegetation indices to identify so-called greening and browning trends across the northern high-latitudes and to suggest that the productivity of Arctic-Boreal ecosystems is changing in response to ...

Optimal land cover mapping and change analysis in northeastern oregon using landsat imagery. [PDF]
The necessity for the development of repeatable, efficient, and accurate monitoring of land cover change is paramount to successful management of our planet’s natural resources. This study evaluated a number of remote sensing methods for classifying land

Linking remote-sensing estimates of land cover and census statistics on land use to produce maps of land use of the conterminous United States [PDF]
Human use of the land has a large effect on the structure of terrestrial ecosystems and the dynamics of biogeochemical cycles. For this reason, terrestrial ecosystem and biogeochemistry models require moderate resolution (e.g., ≤0.5°) information on land

Development of scenarios for land cover, population density, impervious cover, and conservation in New Hampshire, 2010–2100 [PDF]
Future changes in ecosystem services will depend heavily on changes in land cover and land use, which, in turn, are shaped by human activities. Given the challenges of predicting long-term changes in human behaviors and activities, scenarios provide a ...

Land cover change and multiple remotely sensed datasets consistency in China
Although numerous land cover datasets can act as references for understanding land cover change in China, the inconsistencies between the datasets can also provide understanding. Previous studies on the consistency between land cover datasets have mostly
