Tropical forests make an approximately neutral contribution to the global carbon cycle, with
intact and recovering forests taking in as much carbon as is released through deforestation …

Irrigated agriculture accounts for∼ 90% of anthropogenic freshwater consumption, is
deployed on 22% of cultivated land, and provides 40% of global food production. Expanding …

Soil is the largest terrestrial reservoir of organic carbon and is central for climate change
mitigation and carbon-climate feedbacks. Chemical and physical associations of soil carbon …

Land cover (LC) determines the energy exchange, water and carbon cycle between Earth's
spheres. Accurate LC information is a fundamental parameter for the environment and …

Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their
redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate …

Historically, human uses of land have transformed and fragmented ecosystems,, degraded
biodiversity,, disrupted carbon and nitrogen cycles, and added prodigious quantities of …

Carbon budget accounting relies heavily on Food and Agriculture Organization land-use
data reported by governments. Here we develop a new land-use and cover-change …

Rapid urbanization, human demands with dynamic hydrology, and land resources impact
the carbon cycle and ecosystem resilience at the city level. The expansion of urban areas is …

Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions and their
redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate …

Globally, urbanization has dramatically changed land cover, causing a rapid growth in
carbon emissions and related risk of climate change. This study estimated city-level land use …
