Detection and Attribution of Vegetation Greening Trend in China over the Last 30 Years

TL;DR: This study is the first to comprehensively detect and attribute a greening trend in China over the last three decades, using three different satellite-derived Leaf Area Index (LAI) datasets for detection as well as five different process-based ecosystem models for attribution.

Climate mitigation from vegetation biophysical feedbacks during the past three decades

TL;DR: The surface air temperature response to vegetation changes has been studied for the extreme case of land-cover change; yet, it has never been quantified for the slow but persistent increase in leaf area index (LAI) observed over the past 30 years (Earth greening) as mentioned in this paper.
