NASA Land Cover and Land Use Change (LCLUC): an interdisciplinary research program.
TL;DR: The primary emphasis of the program will remain on using remote sensing datasets for LCLUC research and will continue to emphasize integration of physical and social sciences to address regional to global scale issues of LCL UC for the benefit of society.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first early dry season (early June-early August) emission factor measurements for carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), methane (Ca), nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC), and particulates with a diameter less than 2.5 microns (pM2.5) for southern African grassland and woodland fires were presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of simulated shifting cultivation on deforestation and the carbon stocks of the forests of central Africa
TL;DR: In this article, a simulation was conducted to investigate the impacts of shifting cultivation on deforestation and the carbon stocks of the humid tropical forests of central Africa, showing that shifting cultivation under projected rates of rural population growth would increase the annual rate of deforestation to 1.3, converting 94% of the land area into cropland, fallow and secondary forests by 2050.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remote Sensing Based Yield Monitoring: Application to Winter Wheat in United States and Ukraine
Belen Franch,Belen Franch,Eric Vermote,Sergii Skakun,Sergii Skakun,Jean-Claude Roger,Jean-Claude Roger,Inbal Becker-Reshef,Emilie Murphy,Emilie Murphy,Christopher O. Justice +10 more
TL;DR: A new crop yield model based on the Difference Vegetation Index (DVI) extracted from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data at 1 km resolution and the un-mixing of DVI at coarse resolution to a pure wheat signal is presented.
