TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used three long-term satellite leaf area index (LAI) records and ten global ecosystem models to investigate four key drivers of LAI trends during 1982-2009.
Journal ArticleDOI
Revegetation in China’s Loess Plateau is approaching sustainable water resource limits
Xiaoming Feng,Bojie Fu,Shilong Piao,Shilong Piao,Shuai Wang,Philippe Ciais,Zhenzhong Zeng,Yihe Lü,Yuan Zeng,Yue Li,Xiaohui Jiang,Bingfang Wu +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the semi-arid Loess Plateau in China, where the "Grain to Green" large-scale revegetation programme has been in operation since 1999.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results provide empirical evidence for a declining ST, but also suggest that the predicted strong winter warming in the future may further reduce ST and therefore result in a slowdown in the advance of tree spring phenology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection and Attribution of Vegetation Greening Trend in China over the Last 30 Years
Shilong Piao,Shilong Piao,Guodong Yin,Jianguang Tan,Lei Cheng,Mengtian Huang,Yue Li,Ronggao Liu,Jiafu Mao,Ranga B. Myneni,Shushi Peng,Ben Poulter,Xiaoying Shi,Zhiqiang Xiao,Ning Zeng,Zhenzhong Zeng,Ying-Ping Wang +16 more
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.
Journal ArticleDOI
Afforestation in China cools local land surface temperature
Shushi Peng,Shilong Piao,Shilong Piao,Zhenzhong Zeng,Philippe Ciais,Liming Zhou,Laurent Li,Ranga B. Myneni,Yi Yin,Hui Zeng +9 more
TL;DR: Satellite measurements of land surface temperature (LST) from planted forests and adjacent grasslands or croplands in China are used to understand how afforestation affects LST and suggest it is necessary to carefully consider where to plant trees to achieve potential climatic benefits in future Afforestation projects.
