Responses of carbon exchange characteristics to meteorological factors, phenology, and extreme events in a rubber plantation of Danzhou, Hainan: evidence based on multi-year data

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionOn Hainan Island, a rubber plantation that occupies a large swath of land plays an important role in the regional carbon budget. However, the carbon exchange of the rubber plantation is poorly understood.MethodsIn this study, using the eddy ...

Rubber, rubber and rubber: How 75 years of successive rubber plantation rotations affect topsoil quality?

open access: yesLand Degradation & Development, 2022
AbstractRubber tree plantations (Hevea brasiliensis) cover large areas in the tropics. In historical producing regions like South Thailand, rubber has been planted by smallholders for three successive rotations lasting a total of 75 years. Despite possible consequences on topsoil, the long‐term impacts of repeated rubber plantations on soil quality ...

Capability of Phenology-Based Sentinel-2 Composites for Rubber Plantation Mapping in a Large Area with Complex Vegetation Landscapes

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Mapping rubber plantations in a large area is still challenging in high-cloud-cover and complex-vegetation landscapes. Existing studies were often confined to the discrimination of rubber trees from natural forests and rarely concerned other tropical ...
