Improving simulated Amazon forest biomass and productivity by including spatial variation in biophysical parameters
Dynamic vegetation models forced with spatially homogeneous biophysical parameters are capable of producing average productivity and biomass values for the Amazon basin forest biome that are close to the observed estimates, but these models are unable to reproduce observed spatial variability. Recen...
