Assessing 20th century climate-vegetation feedbacks of land-use change and natural vegetation dynamics in a fully coupled vegetation-climate model

, 2010
This study describes the coupling of the dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM), Lund–Potsdam–Jena Model for managed land (LPJmL), with the general circulation model (GCM), Simplified Parameterizations primitivE Equation DYnamics model (SPEEDY), to study

Biomass equations for European beech growing on dry sites

iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2016
Biomass equations for European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) trees growing on dry sites have not been published, although such equations are needed for a proper estimation of the biomass of beech trees growing naturally at their drought limit in dry forests.

Large‐scale and fine‐grained mapping of heathland habitats using open‐source remote sensing data

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Mapping natural habitats remains challenging, especially at a national scale. Although new open‐access variables for vegetation and its environment and increased spatial resolution derived from satellite remote sensing data are available at the global ...

High-resolution estimation of air pollutant emissions from vegetation burning in China (2000–2018)

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Vegetation burning in China contributes significantly to atmospheric pollution and climate change. However, most recent studies have focused on forest fires, ignoring grassland fires.

Optimum harvest maturity for Leymus chinensis seed

Biology Open, 2016
Timely harvest is critical to achieve maximum seed viability and vigour in agricultural production. However, little information exists concerning how to reap the best quality seeds of Leymus chinensis, which is the dominant and most promising grass ...

Land cover classification using multi-temporal MERIS vegetation indices [PDF]

, 2007
The spectral, spatial, and temporal resolutions of Envisat's Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) data are attractive for regional- to global-scale land cover mapping.

Selecting dominant or rare tree species as habitat trees: Consequences for epiphyte diversity in temperate mountain forests

Trees, Forests and People
The retention of habitat trees, defined as large old trees saved from logging, is a key strategy for biodiversity conservation in production forests. Epiphytic bryophytes and lichens, which rely on the diverse microhabitats provided by large old trees ...

A new world natural vegetation map for global change studies

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2008
We developed a new world natural vegetation map at 1 degree horizontal resolution for use in global climate models. We used the Dorman and Sellers vegetation classification with inclusion of a new biome: tropical seasonal forest, which refers to both ...

Efficacy of Intermittent Theta‐Burst Stimulation for Prolonged Disorders of Consciousness: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Emerging evidence suggests that low‐frequency neural oscillations are dynamically regulated by consciousness levels, with the recovery of low cortical activity potentially serving as a neurophysiological substrate for conscious emergence. Targeted enhancement of these low‐frequency rhythms in patients with disorders of consciousness

Dynamic Growth of “Pioneer Trees” as a Basis for Recreational Revitalization of Old Urban Landfills: A Case Study of Zgierz, Central Poland

Land
Urban tree biodiversity represents a valuable natural resource. However, some fast-growing tree species with limited esthetic value play an important ecological role by colonizing degraded areas, such as closed landfills.
