Journal ArticleDOI

Markedly divergent estimates of Amazon forest carbon density from ground plots and satellites

Edward T. A. Mitchard, +85 more
TL;DR: Pantropical biomass maps are widely used by governments and by projects aiming to reduce deforestation using carbon offsets, but may have significant regional biases and carbon accounting techniques must be revised to account for the known ecological variation in tree wood density and allometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

The response of NW Iberian vegetation to North Atlantic climate oscillations during the last 65 kyr

TL;DR: In this article, a centennial to millennial scale record of conditions offshore and of the vegetation of north-west Iberia for the period 10-65-ka was provided by deep ocean core MD95-2039.
Journal ArticleDOI

The distribution and amount of carbon in the largest peatland complex in Amazonia

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a multi-sensor (Landsat, ALOS PALSAR and SRTM) remote sensing approach, together with field data including 24 forest census plots and 218 peat thickness measurements, to map the distribution of peatland vegetation types and calculate the combined above-and below-ground carbon stock of Peatland ecosystems in the Pastaza-Maranon foreland basin in Peru.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Duration of Forest Stages in Southern Europe and Interglacial Climate Variability

TL;DR: Foraminiferal oxygen isotope and pollen analyses from a deep-sea sequence off southwest Portugal show that the duration of temperate stages on land over the past 350,000 years varied considerably, which complicates the prediction of the natural duration of interglacials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Combined Marine Proxy and Pollen Analyses Reveal Rapid Iberian Vegetation Response to North Atlantic Millennial-Scale Climate Oscillations

TL;DR: A deep-sea sediment core from the western Portuguese margin has provided a continuous, high-resolution record of millennial-scale climatic oscillations during the interval 9000-65,000 yr B.P.
