TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used satellite data to map severely burned areas by exploring the ecological manifestations before and after a fire, using a simple stratification of Landsat Thematic Mapper data defined varying classes of burn severity because of changes in canopy cover, biomass removal, and soil chemical composition.

TL;DR: L'indice de surface foliaire (LAI) pour le Glacier National Park situe dans le Montana, aux Etats-Unis, en utilisant diverses methodes de mesure de LAI sur le terrain et en etablissant une correlation entre ces resultats et les donnees TM du capteur Landsat.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a high-resolution record of atmospheric CO2 for 16 million years of the late Palaeozoic, developed using soil carbonate-based and fossil leaf-based proxies, that resolves the climate conundrum.

TL;DR: It is found that daily photosynthesis could be predictably estimated between modeling scales with correlation coefficients ranging between 0.89 to 0.99 and evapotranspiration was similarly predictable between scales but was influenced by differences associated with hydrologic modeling.

TL;DR: In this article, a process-based model of forest growth, carbon cycling and land-cover dynamics named CARLUC (for CARbon and Land-Use Change) was developed to estimate the size of terrestrial carbon pools in terra firme (nonflooded) forests across the Brazilian Legal Amazon and the net flux of carbon resulting from forest disturbance and forest recovery from disturbance.
