Anthropogenic land cover changes (LCC) affect regional and global climate through biophysical variations of the surface energy budget mediated by albedo, evapotranspiration, roughness. This change in may exacerbate or counteract biogeochemical greenhouse gas effects LCC, with a large body emerging assessments being produced, sometimes apparently contradictory. We reviewed existing scientific literature objective to provide an overview state-of-the-knowledge LCC effects, support assessment...

Abstract. In support of the global stocktake Paris Agreement on climate change, this study presents a comprehensive framework to process results an ensemble atmospheric inversions in order make their net ecosystem exchange (NEE) carbon dioxide (CO2) flux suitable for evaluating national greenhouse gas inventories (NGHGIs) submitted by countries United Nations Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC). From we also deduced anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions regrouped into fossil and...

Land use and land cover change (LULCC) affects the climate through both biogeochemical (BGC) biophysical (BPH) mechanisms. While BGC effects are assessed at global scale heart of treaties such as Paris Agreement, BPH totally absent despite their increasingly recognized impact, especially local scale. This stems from complexity in characterizing impacts scale, which makes it impractical to offer clear advices for development policies. To overcome this barrier, we built a prototype an...

Abstract. Reliable quantification of the sources and sinks atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), including that their trends uncertainties, is essential to monitoring progress in mitigating anthropogenic emissions under Kyoto Protocol Paris Agreement. This study provides a consolidated synthesis estimates for all natural CO2 European Union UK (EU27 + UK), derived from combination state-of-the-art bottom-up (BU) top-down (TD) data models. Given wide scope work variety datasets involved, this...

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission inventories represent the link between national and international political actions on climate change, environmental sciences. Inventory agencies need to include, in GHG inventories, removal estimates based scientific data following specific reporting guidance under United Nation Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC) Paris Agreement, using methodologies defined Intergovernmental Panel (IPCC) Guidelines. Often however, research communities inventory have...

Land use inventories are sound measures to provide information on the area occupied by different land or cover types and their changes, although less widespread than traditional mapping; as such, they distinctively well-established tools for generating statistics state dynamics of in European Union.

This study reviews carbon stocks and dynamics in different types of forest land Italy: ordinary managed forests, plantations, old growth trees outside forests. Forest management, combined with global environmental changes, increases the capacity uptake particularly ones subject to short‐rotation forestry systems, potentially have high soil accumulation, especially agricultural lands. Old recently discovered as a sink, cover significant surface area Italy. Moreover, forests may represent...

ABSTRACT Hawkmoths and flowers exhibit striking examples of morphological specialisation, yet how these interactions are structured by different processes within communities still need to be better understood. In this study, we investigated the between hawkmoths in megadiverse, open‐vegetation landscape Brazilian Campos Rupestres. Using a zoocentric approach based on pollen loads found hawkmoth bodies, assessed their at community‐level. Our results revealed modular network, with both...

Wildfires are the most common disturbances in Mediterranean forest ecosystems that cause significant emissions of greenhouse gases as a result biomass burning. Despite this, there is reasonably high uncertainty regarding actual fraction burnt and related CO2 non-CO2 gas released during fires. The aim this paper to compare existing methodologies adopted National Greenhouse Gas Inventory reports five fire-affected countries southern Europe (Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, France) with those...

Abstract Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration is a key function of natural and semi‐natural ecosystems. Restoring this property in terrestrial ecosystems has become central to the EU's climate change mitigation adaptation strategies. However, SOC widely misunderstood concept. The different methodological approaches used investigate compare stock under sustainable agricultural practices play role reinforcing misconceptions about complex process. This commentary paper aimed not only provide...
