  • Forest Hydrology

    Processes, Management and Assessment

    Edited by Professor Leon Bren, Devendra Amatya, Professor Thomas Williams, Professor Carmen de Jong, Ge Sun ...
    Forests cover about a third of the world's land surface area. They represent a distinct biotic community, provide a living for many millions of people, and provide fresh water to sustain communities. Forests capture part of the precipitation and pass the remainder into the soil. Some of this is then passed back to the atmosphere along with some to streams as a regulated outflow. Forest cover is ... Read more

  • Forest Hydrology

    Processes, Management and Assessment

    Edited by Devendra Amatya, Professor Thomas Williams, Professor Leon Bren, Professor Carmen de Jong ...
    Forests cover approximately 26% of the world's land surface area and represent a distinct biotic community. They interact with water and soil in a variety of ways, providing canopy surfaces which trap precipitation and allow evaporation back into the atmosphere, thus regulating how much water reaches the forest floor as through fall, as well as pull water from the soil for transpiration. The ... Read more

  • The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index

    by Nathalie Pettorelli ...
    There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference Vegetation Index), a simple numerical indicator and powerful tool that can be used to assess spatio-temporal changes in green vegetation. The NDVI opens the possibility of addressing questions on scales inaccessible to ... Read more

  • Forests and Global Change

    Edited by David A. Coomes, David F. R. P. Burslem, William D. Simonson ...
    Series series Ecological Reviews
    Forests hold a significant proportion of global biodiversity and terrestrial carbon stocks and are at the forefront of human-induced global change. The dynamics and distribution of forest vegetation determines the habitat for other organisms, and regulates the delivery of ecosystem services, including carbon storage. Presenting recent research across temperate and tropical ecosystems, this volume ... Read more
