Contribution of Climate Change and Grazing on Carbon Dynamics in Central Asian Pasturelands by Chaofan Li, Qifei Han, Wenqiang Xu

“…In this study, a modified Biome-BGC grazing model was driven by an ensemble of reanalysis data of the Climate Forecast System Reanalysis data (CFSR), the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Interim Reanalysis (ERA-Interim), and the Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA), to study the effect of climate change and grazing on the net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of the pasturelands in Central Asia. …”

Determinants of Fire Impact in the Brazilian Biomes by Ubirajara Oliveira, Britaldo Soares-Filho, Mercedes Bustamante, Leticia Gomes, Jean P. Ometto, Raoni Rajão, Raoni Rajão

“…HIF occurred in the Amazon, Cerrado, and Pantanal, but not in the Atlantic Forest, Pampa, and Caatinga biomes. As the main drivers of HIF, our spatial autoregressive models (SAR) (Amazônia R2 = 0.66, Pantanal R2 = 0.86 and Cerrado R2 = 0.79) indicated the climate (Amazon, 25%, Pantanal, 53%, and Cerrado, 56%) together with land-use change (Amazon, 75%, Pantanal, 25%, and Cerrado, 38%). …”
