Ecological insights from three decades of forest biodiversity experiments - Nature Reviews Biodiversity Experiments manipulating tree species diversity and measuring effects on ecosystem function have been important tools for assessing how biodiverse forests can accumulate biomass, store carbon and help...

I am glad to share insights on what we have learned from the global set of forest biodiversity experiments over the last three decades in this new review paper first-authored by my wonderful colleague, Xiaojuan Liu, from the BEF China experiment www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Mapping the spatial distribution of species using airborne and spaceborne imaging spectroscopy: A case study of invasive plants Predicting the spatial distribution of invasive plants remains challenging because of the complex relationships between plant invasion, abiotic, and b…

In our recent paper led by M. Ny Aina Rakotoarivony, we showed that combining hyperspectral data with fine-resolution multispectral data significantly improves our ability to map the spatial distribution of invasive plants #NASA_SBG #cube_sats #fusion. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
