Susan pan new paper on modeling and monitoring terrestrial NPP in a changing global environment

30 April 2014

AUBURN – Dr. Susan Pan published a new paper on “Modeling and Monitoring Terrestrial Primary Production in a Changing Global Environment: Toward a Multiscale Synthesis of Observation and Simulation” in Advances in Meteorology. The paper focuses on 3 major approaches to monitoring an predicting terrestrial NPP: ground based measurements, satellite observations, and process-based models and highlight the importance of incorporating socioeconomic component into terrestrial ecosystem models for accurately estimating and predicting terrestrial NPP in a changing global environment.
