Estimating actual evapotranspiration from irrigated fields using a simplified surface energy balance approach Estimating actual evapotranspiration from irrigated fields using a simplified surface energy balance approach
Food security assessment in many developing countries, such as Afghanistan, is vital because the early identification of populations at risk can enable the timely and appropriate actions needed to avert widespread hunger, destitution, or even famine. The assessment is complex, requiring the simultaneous consideration of multiple socioeconomic and environmental variables. Since large and...

Quantifying the spatial details of carbon sequestration potential and performance Quantifying the spatial details of carbon sequestration potential and performance
Upscaling the spatial and temporal changes of carbon stocks and fluxes from sites to regions is challenging owing to the spatial and temporal variances and covariance of driving variables and the uncertainties in both the model and the input data. Although various modeling approaches have been developed to facilitate the upscaling process, few deal with error transfer from model input to...

Landsat mapping of local landscape change: The satellite-era context Landsat mapping of local landscape change: The satellite-era context
To set the stage for a vulnerability analysis, investigators must describe and understand the geographic context, including physical characteristics of the landscape and the political and socioeconomic milieu of the population (Jianchu et al. 2005). Vulnerability studies focus on a particular place, at a specific time through its three dimensions, exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive...

Rapid assessment of U.S. forest and soil organic carbon storage and forest biomass carbon sequestration capacity Rapid assessment of U.S. forest and soil organic carbon storage and forest biomass carbon sequestration capacity
This report provides results of a rapid assessment of biological carbon stocks and forest biomass carbon sequestration capacity in the conterminous United States. Maps available from the U.S. Department of Agriculture are used to calculate estimates of current organic carbon storage in soils (73 petagrams of carbon, or PgC) and forest biomass (17 PgC). Of these totals, 3.5 PgC of soil...

Coastal sensitivity to sea level rise— A focus on the Mid-Atlantic Region Coastal sensitivity to sea level rise— A focus on the Mid-Atlantic Region
This Synthesis and Assessment Product (SAP), developed as part of the U.S. Climate Change Science Program, examines potential effects of sea-level rise from climate change during the twenty-first century, with a focus on the mid-Atlantic coast of the United States. Using scientific literature and policy-related documents, the SAP describes the physical environments; potential changes to...
