Edge Effects in Amazon Forests: Integrating Remote Sensing and Modelling to Assess Changes in Biomass and Productivity
The tropical forests in the Amazon store large amounts of carbon and are still considered a carbon sink. There is evidence that deforestation can turn a forest landscape into a carbon source due to land use and forest degradation. Deforestation causes fragmented forest landscapes. It is known from f...
