The relative productivity index: Mapping human impacts on rangeland vegetation productivity with quantile regression forests Open
Rangeland degradation is a persistent decline in the productivity of vegetation that supports wild or domestic herbivores. However, rangelands often exhibit highly variable climates and dynamic, resilient vegetation, making it difficult to…
Untangling the environmental drivers of gross primary productivity in African rangelands Open
Precipitation variability is forecast to increase under climate change but its impacts on vegetation productivity are complex. Here, we use generalised additive models and remote sensing-derived datasets to quantify the effect of precipita…

Optimizing restoration: A holistic spatial approach to deliver Nature’s Contributions to People with minimal tradeoffs and maximal equity Open
Ecosystem restoration is inherently a complex activity with inevitable tradeoffs in environmental and societal outcomes. These tradeoffs can potentially be large when policies and practices are focused on single outcomes versus joint achie…

Existing land uses constrain climate change mitigation potential of forest restoration in India Open
Many countries have made ambitious pledges to increase forest areas to mitigate climate change. However, the availability of land to meet these goals is not well understood. Global studies indicate substantial potential, but do not account…
What Is the Impact of Mass Timber Utilization on Climate and Forests? Open
As the need to address climate change grows more urgent, policymakers, businesses, and others are seeking innovative approaches to remove carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere and decarbonize hard-to-abate sectors. Forests can play …

Land‐based measures to mitigate climate change: Potential and feasibility by country Open
Land‐based climate mitigation measures have gained significant attention and importance in public and private sector climate policies. Building on previous studies, we refine and update the mitigation potentials for 20 land‐based measures …

National mitigation potential from natural climate solutions in the tropics Open
Better land stewardship is needed to achieve the Paris Agreement's temperature goal, particularly in the tropics, where greenhouse gas emissions from the destruction of ecosystems are largest, and where the potential for additional land ca…

We need both natural and energy solutions to stabilize our climate Open
We respond to concerns raised by Baldocchi and Penuelas who question the potential for ecosystems to provide carbon sinks and storage, and conclude that we should focus on decarbonizing our energy systems. While we agree with many of their…
Natural climate solutions for the United States Open
U.S. land management can contribute 1.2 Pg CO 2 e year −1 of greenhouse gas mitigation, 76% of which costs USD 50 Mg CO 2 e −1 or less.

Natural climate solutions Open
Significance Most nations recently agreed to hold global average temperature rise to well below 2 °C. We examine how much climate mitigation nature can contribute to this goal with a comprehensive analysis of “natural climate solutions” (N…
