Comparison of land–ocean warming ratios in updated observed records and CMIP5 climate models
Environmental Research Letters, 2018 A well-known feature of the observed and simulated climate is enhanced land surface warming compared to the ocean. This difference in warming, frequently expressed as a ratio, is often contrasted between the observed record and climate model output as both an evaluation metric for climate models and as a global index used for climate change detection ...

Geomatics, Landmanagement and Landscape, 2021 Pursuant to the Geodetic and Cartographic Law, the soil science based classification of land should be understood as the division of soils into valuation classes due to their productive quality, determined on the basis of soil genetic features. Pursuant to the above-mentioned Act, the task of the starosta (district administrator) is to maintain both ...

Modelling Spatial Compositional Data: Reconstructions of past land cover and uncertainties [PDF]
, 2017 In this paper, we construct a hierarchical model for spatial compositional data, which is used to reconstruct past land-cover compositions (in terms of coniferous forest, broadleaved forest, and unforested/open land) for five time periods during the past
