Susan Page,Agata Hoscilo,Henk Wösten,Jyrki Jauhiainen,Marcel Silvius,Jack Rieley,Henk Ritzema,Kevin Tansey,Laura R. Graham,Harri Vasander,Suwido H. Limin +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the current state of knowledge pertaining to land-cover dynamics of degraded peatlands, vegetation rehabilitation, restoration of hydrology, rehabilitation of carbon sequestration and storage, and promotion of sustainable livelihoods for local communities is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new, global, multi‐annual (2000–2007) burnt area product at 1 km resolution
Kevin Tansey,Jean-Marie Grégoire,Pierre Defourny,Roland Leigh,Jean-François Pekel,Eric Van Bogaert,Etienne Bartholomé +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a modified version of a Global Burnt Area (GBA) 2000 algorithm is used to compute global burnt area. But the accuracy of this new global data set depends on vegetation type.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, an inventory of burned areas at monthly time periods for the year 2000 at a resolution of 1 km2 has been produced using satellite data and has been made freely available to the scientific community.
Journal ArticleDOI
Landscape transformations in savannas of northern South America: Land use/cover changes since 1987 in the Llanos Orientales of Colombia
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed spatial, quantitative assessment of the land use/cover changes in the savanna region of Llanos Orientales in Colombia is presented, which is related to the economic and market-oriented development from before 1970 to the present day.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ten years of global burned area products from spaceborne remote sensing-A review: Analysis of user needs and recommendations for future developments
Florent Mouillot,Martin G. Schultz,Chao Yue,Patricia Cadule,Kevin Tansey,Philippe Ciais,Emilio Chuvieco +6 more
TL;DR: The increasing use of BA products since the year 2000 with an increase use of MODIS as a reference dataset is identified and a significant need for low spatial resolution and long time series data characterized with supplementary information concerning the accuracy in timing of the fire and reductions of omission/commission errors is presented.
