The importance of digital elevation model accuracy in XCO2 retrievals: improving the Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 Atmospheric Carbon Observations from Space version 11 retrieval product [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques
Knowledge of surface pressure is essential for calculating column-averaged dry-air mole fractions of trace gases, such as CO2 (XCO2). In the NASA Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) Atmospheric Carbon Observations from Space (ACOS) retrieval algorithm,

A Global Evaluation of Radar-Derived Digital Elevation Models: SRTM, NASADEM, and GLO-30

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research G: Biogeosciences
AbstractThis study evaluates global radar‐derived digital elevation models (DEMs), namely the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), NASADEM and GLO‐30 DEMs. We evaluate their accuracy over bare‐earth terrain and characterize elevation biases induced by forests using global Lidar measurements from the Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat)'

Unlocking Tropical Forest Complexity: How Tree Assemblages in Secondary Forests Boost Biodiversity Conservation. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Secondary forests are crucial for achieving COP15/16 conservation goals. An operational national approach was developed to identify and characterise forest ecosystems based on the dominant tree species in the canopy, serving as indicators for ecosystem extent and condition.
