Spatially explicit analysis of field inventories for national forest carbon monitoring

Carbon Balance and Management, 2016
Background Tropical forests provide a crucial carbon sink for a sizable portion of annual global CO2 emissions. Policies that incentivize tropical forest conservation by monetizing forest carbon ultimately depend on accurate estimates of national carbon ...

Co-evolution

Ri-vista: Ricerche per la Progettazione del Paesaggio, 2023
The term co-evolution forces us to reflect on the transformation of the meaning of some terms, linked to the profound changes of our time and very relevant for the design disciplines. Starting from the role that some relational models have had within the

Discussions on the disciplinary system of modern karstology

Carsologica Sinica, 2022
As an important part of modern earth science, karstology (karst science) has always been considered as a cross and marginal discipline between geology, geography, environmental science and ecology, but has not established its own independent discipline ...

Sediment and particulate carbon removal by pipe erosion increase over time in blanket peatlands as a consequence of land drainage [PDF]

, 2006
Land drainage is common in peatlands. Artificially drained blanket peat catchments have been shown to have a significantly greater soil pipe density than intact catchments.

GEOECOLOGY – UNITY OF GEOLOGICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL SCIENCES

Transactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2020
This article reviews the theory of Geoecology as a modern science in the geological and geographical series. There are propositions that geography of underground spaces will arise in the future due to intensive human use of the geological space ...

Can we set a global threshold age to define mature forests? [PDF]

, 2015
Globally, mature forests appear to be increasing in biomass density (BD). There is disagreement whether these increases are the result of increases in atmospheric CO2 concentrations or a legacy effect of previous land-use. Recently, it was suggested that

The first-order effect of Holocene Northern Peatlands on global carbon cycle dynamics [PDF]

, 2010
Given the fact that the estimated present-day carbon storage of Northern Peatlands (NP) is about 300–500 petagram (PgC, 1 petagram = 1015 gram), and the NP has been subject to a slow but persistent growth over the Holocene epoch, it is desirable to ...
