Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Spatial heterogeneity and nonlinear climatic responses of net ecosystem productivity across China

open access: yesGIScience & Remote Sensing
Terrestrial ecosystems are pivotal in regulating atmospheric CO₂ concentrations, yet their carbon sequestration capacity exhibits strong spatial heterogeneity due to complex climate–ecosystem interactions.

Forest productivity mitigates human disturbance effects on late-seral prey exposed to apparent competitors and predators

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Primary production can determine the outcome of management actions on ecosystem properties, thereby defining sustainable management. Yet human agencies commonly overlook spatio-temporal variations in productivity by recommending fixed resource extraction

Analyzing the causes and spatial pattern of the European 2003 carbon flux anomaly in Europe using seven models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
International audienceGlobally, the year 2003 is associated with one of the largest atmospheric CO2 rises on record. In the same year, Europe experienced an anomalously strong flux of CO2 from the land to the atmosphere associated with an exceptionally ...

Choice experiments on land managers' participation in environmental programs: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of estimate validity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Discrete choice experiments are increasingly being used to estimate land managers' willingness to accept participation in incentive‐based environmental programs. This is a specific application of discrete choice experiments: the estimation of willingness to accept for a private good (program participation) where respondents have to make trade ...

Assessing the Carbon Budget Dynamics of Terrestrial Ecosystems in the Amur River Basin

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In the context of climate change, understanding the carbon cycle of terrestrial ecosystem is important for projecting the future climate. Toward this end, it is essential to determine the roles of different terrestrial ecosystems as either carbon sources
