Land Use Increases the Correlation between Tree Cover and Biomass Carbon Stocks in the Global Tropics

چکیده
Tree cover (TC) and biomass carbon stocks (CS) are key parameters for characterizing vegetation indispensable assessing the role of terrestrial ecosystems in global climate system. Land use, through land change management, affects both parameters. In this study, we quantify empirical relationship between TC CS demonstrate impacts use by combining spatially explicit estimates actual potential (i.e., hypothetical absence use) across tropics (~23.4° N to 23.4° S). We find that strongly alters CS, with stronger effects on than tropical biomes, especially moist forests. comparison TC-CS correlation observed (biome-level R based ecozones = 0.56–0.90), increases 0.87–0.94) vegetation. Increased correlations not only change. additionally identify management closed forests, which cause reductions. Our large-scale assessment can inform upcoming remote sensing efforts map ecosystem structure high spatio-temporal detail highlights need an focus tropics.

Global Tree Cover and Biomass Carbon on Agricultural Land: The contribution of agroforestry to global and national carbon budgets
Agroforestry systems and tree cover on agricultural land make an important contribution to climate change mitigation, but are not systematically accounted for in either global carbon budgets or national carbon accounting. This paper assesses the role of trees on agricultural land and their significance for carbon sequestration at a global level, along with recent change trends. Remote sensing d...

Land Use and Land Cover Change (LULCC) is the most prominent cause of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) variability in any landscape. Kenyan Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) have been facing extensive land use/ cover changes in the last three decades prompting a review on the impacts it has on soil quality and consequently on land degradation. This study was carried out in 2016 in Olesharo Catchment, N...
