Estimating Net Primary Productivity under Climate Change by Application of Global Forest Model (G4M) [PDF]

, 2016
Net primary productivity (NPP) is considered as an important indicator for forest ecosystem since the role of the forest is highlighted as a key sector for mitigating climate change.

Large Regional Variation in Global Impacts of Agriculture on Terrestrial Insects and Other Arthropods

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
We show that impacts of agriculture on arthropod biodiversity are notably less negative in Europe than in other regions, which we find is driven by a degraded baseline, a selection bias of reference sites, and novel species compositions in agriculture that favour widespread habitat generalists and non‐native species.

The Relationship Between Human Activities and Ecosystem Service Supply–Demand From the Perspective of Land Use Transformation

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 10763-10783, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The equilibrium between ecosystem service supply and demand relationships (ESSDR) is essential for regional sustainable development. Understanding the relationship between human activity intensity (HAI) and ESSDR from the perspective of land use transformation (LT) is important for ecological management and governance.

Biodiversity: Net primary productivity relationships are eliminated by invasive species dominance [PDF]

, 2023
Experiments often find that net primary productivity (NPP) increases with species richness when native species are considered. However, relationships may be altered by exotic (non-native) species, which are hypothesized to reduce richness but increase ...

Adverse Effects of Ozone Pollution on Net Primary Productivity in the North China Plain

Geophysical Research Letters
Tropospheric ozone significantly damages vegetation and reduces net primary productivity (NPP). We developed a stable linear NPP response model based on accumulated ozone exposure over a threshold of 40 parts per billion (ppb) (AOT40).

Spatially Heterogeneous and Nonlinear Responses of Ecosystem Service Value to Human Activity Intensity in an Arid Mountain–Oasis–Desert Urban Agglomeration

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 15, Page 11277-11297, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rapid urbanization and agricultural expansion are reshaping human–environment relationships in arid regions; however, the spatially heterogeneous and nonlinear relationships between human activities and ecosystem services remain insufficiently understood.

Aboveground Net Primary Productivity in Grazed and Ungrazed pastures: Grazing Optimisation Hypothesis or Local Extinction of Vegetation Species [PDF]

, 2009
The controversy that has surrounded herbivory studies in the last few decades prompted our investigation to establish the extent to which herbivore optimisation hypothesis or compensatory growth evidence is real.

Simulation by remote sensing and analysis of net primary productivity of vegetation based on topographical correction

, 2013
The study on simulation of the net primary productivity (NPP) was significant in monitoring carbon balance and understanding deeply the global carbon cycle.

Pyrosome fecal pellet production: Implications for grazing and carbon export

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract This study quantifies the fecal pellet production and pellet sinking rates of the pyrosome Pyrosoma atlanticum in the Southern California Current across a range of conditions, from the productive nearshore to the oligotrophic offshore. Fecal pellet production rates averaged 1310 ± 76 pellets h−1, resulting in the production of up to 390,380 ...
