In our new paper in Nature Water, we figured out how much carbon can be capture on degraded/deforested lands globally, and the water requirements to support those ecosystems relative to human consumptive demand. nature.com/articles/s4422… @c_terrer @ciais_philippe @NatureWaterJnl

This is a great move in the right direction. Connecting two (often disconnected) communities (I.e., remote sensing and ground-based research) is urgently needed and at large scales. We should have more of these initiatives!

🌾 ESA World Cover is proved to be the top layer for mapping African cropland, but it also highlights a critical gap in long-term monitoring! 🌍 In a recent study, only 0.5% consensus was found across cropland maps. My summary⬇️ linkedin.com/pulse/mapping-…

Wally Broecker and I wrote about the possibility that there might be a northward shift of the ‘thermal equator’ as NH warming outpaces that in the south. pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

The 2023 Canadian forest fires released about 640 million metric tons of carbon, according to a @NASA study. That’s comparable to the annual fossil fuel emissions of a large industrialized nation. The fires were driven by Canada’s warmest and driest conditions in decades.
