Species richness-environment relationships of European arthropods at two spatial grains : habitats and countries [PDF]
We study how species richness of arthropods relates to theories concerning net primary productivity, ambient energy, water-energy dynamics and spatial environmental heterogeneity.

Mapping human impact on Net Primary Productivity using MODIS data for better policy making [PDF]
Tropical forests support core biological, hydrological and socioeconomic functions essential to life on earth. An assessment based on the Human Appropriation of Net Primary Production (HANPP) could help reduce exploitation of these forests, increasing ...

Assessing the comparative productivity advantage of bioenergy feedstocks at different latitudes
We evaluate the comparative productivity of maize and sugarcane biofuel feedstocks as a function of latitude. Solar radiation for photosynthesis varies by latitude and contributes to differential productivity of tropical and temperate zones. We calculate

The dry season intensity as a key driver of NPP trends [PDF]
We analyze the impacts of changing dry season length and intensity on vegetation productivity and biomass. Our results show a wetness asymmetry in dry ecosystems, with dry seasons becoming drier and wet seasons becoming wetter, likely caused by climate ...

Variations of Terrestrial Net Primary Productivity in East Asia
Due to the heterogeneity and complexity of terrestrial ecosystems of East Asia, a better understanding of relationships between climate change and net primary productivity (NPP) distribution is important to predict future carbon dynamics.
