Estimating Land Degradation Level Using Remote Sensing Data and Fuzzy AHP Technique
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Land degradation is a critical global environmental concern that significantly impacts ecosystem services, agricultural productivity, weather patterns, human livelihoods and overall well‐being. Prompt and precise assessments of land degradation status are crucial for environmental governance and sustainable development. Remote sensing data can

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Riparian zones in Mediterranean agroecosystems are highly vulnerable to degradation because cultivation often reaches stream edges and annual vegetation senesces during the late‐summer dry period, leaving soils exposed when the first erosive autumn rains occur.

Pteris madhusoodananii (Pteridaceae), a new fern species from India
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Pteris madhusoodananii sp. nov. (Pteridaceae), from the Kolli hills of Eastern Ghats, India, is described. The new taxon is morphologically distinct, characterized by a unique lamina texture and coloration, specific pinna‐pinnule architecture and distinct spore micromorphology.

Climate-driven land surface phenology advance is overestimated due to ignoring land cover changes
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Global warming has led to earlier spring green-up dates (GUDs) in recent decades with significant consequences for global carbon and hydrologic cycles. In addition to changes in climate, land cover change (LCC), including interchanges between vegetation ...

Two new endemic species of Portulaca (Portulacaceae) from the Brazilian Pampa grasslands
Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Portulaca L. is a monophyletic, cosmopolitan genus of succulent plants comprising ca 153 species, with particularly high diversity in xerophytic ecosystems in tropical and subtropical regions. Based on morphological evidence, we describe and illustrate two new species from the Brazilian Pampa, Portulaca guaritensis and Portulaca guenoa.

Variability of phenology and fluxes of water and carbon with observed and simulated soil moisture in the Ent Terrestrial Biosphere Model (Ent TBM version 1.0.1.0.0) [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2015 The Ent Terrestrial Biosphere Model (Ent TBM) is a mixed-canopy dynamic global vegetation model developed specifically for coupling with land surface hydrology and general circulation models (GCMs).

Altitude‐dependent influence of snow cover on alpine land surface phenology [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2017 AbstractSnow cover impacts alpine land surface phenology in various ways, but our knowledge about the effect of snow cover on alpine land surface phenology is still limited. We studied this relationship in the European Alps using satellite‐derived metrics of snow cover phenology (SCP), namely, first snow fall, last snow day, and snow cover duration ...
