Vegetation cover changes associated with land use and land cover change (LULCC) can perturb the local surface energy balance, which in turn can affect...
Forest disturbance regimes are expected to intensify as Earth’s climate changes. Quantifying forest vulnerability to disturbances and understanding the underlying mechanisms is crucial to develop mitigation and adaptation...
The need for accurate information on the state and evolution of tropical forest types at regional and continental scales is widely recognized, particularly to analyze the forest diversity and dynamics, to assess degradation...
Outbreaks of a plant disease in a landscape can be meaningfully modelled using networks with nodes representing individual crop-fields, and edges representing potential infection pathways between...
Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, and enhancing carbon stocks (REDD+) is a crucial component of global climate change mitigation. Systematically measuring, reporting and verifying forest...
The Canopy Health Monitoring (CanHeMon) project ran at the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission from mid-2015 to mid-2018 and was funded by DG SANTE. Its aim was...
As part of the EU emergency measures against the pine wood nematode (PWN) (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) laid down under Decision 2012/535/EU, Portugal should perform, outside...
Accurate and reliable information on the spatial distribution of major crops is needed for detecting possible production deficits with the aim of preventing food security crises and anticipating response planning...
Agriculture monitoring, and in particular food security, requires near real time information on crop growing conditions for early detection of possible production deficits. Anomaly maps...
