Tropical tall forests are more sensitive and vulnerable to drought than short forests

Liyang Liu et al.

Summary: Research shows that the impact of drought on forest canopies varies with canopy height, with taller tropical forests experiencing greater reductions in Ku-VOD during drought and larger increases in non-drought periods. Taller forests are more vulnerable to drought stress due to smaller xylem-transport safety margins. The variation in hydraulic transport based on canopy height should be considered in ecosystem models to improve predictions of tropical forest responses to drought.

Forest fragmentation impacts the seasonality of Amazonian evergreen canopies

Matheus Henrique Nunes et al.

Summary: The magnitude and timing of leaf phenology in Amazonian forests are controversial. This study shows that plant phenology varies across vertical strata, but is sensitive to disturbances from forest fragmentation. Edge effects have a strong influence on phenological controls in wet forests of Central Amazonia.

A new SMAP soil moisture and vegetation optical depth product (SMAP-IB): Algorithm, assessment and inter-comparison

Xiaojun Li et al.

Summary: Passive microwave remote sensing at L-band provides an unprecedented opportunity to estimate global surface soil moisture and vegetation water content. This study presents a new algorithm (SMAP-IB) to retrieve soil moisture and L-band vegetation optical depth from SMAP radiometric observations. The results suggest that SMAP-IB performs well in capturing the temporal trends of in-situ observations and exhibits good correlation with aboveground biomass and tree height.

Pronounced loss of Amazon rainforest resilience since the early 2000s

Chris A. Boulton et al.

Summary: The resilience of the Amazon rainforest to climate and land-use change is crucial for biodiversity, regional climate, and the global carbon cycle. However, deforestation and climate change have led to a decrease in resilience of more than three-quarters of the rainforest since the early 2000s, indicating a potential tipping point.

The first global soil moisture and vegetation optical depth product retrieved from fused SMOS and SMAP L-band observations

Xiaojun Li et al.

Summary: ESA's SMOS and NASA's SMAP are two L-band radiometer missions providing key information on global surface soil moisture and vegetation water content. This study presents the first global long-term and continuous dataset of soil moisture and L-band vegetation optical depth (VOD) retrieved by merging SMOS and SMAP observations. The results show that the inter-calibration approach effectively removes bias and the merged dataset performs well in terms of detection metrics.

The Novel Microwave Temperature Vegetation Drought Index (MTVDI) Captures Canopy Seasonality across Amazonian Tropical Evergreen Forests

Liyang Liu et al.

Summary: This study used a new Microwave Temperature-Vegetation Drought Index (MTVDI) and other climate indicators to analyze the canopy seasonality of the Amazonian tropical forest. The results indicate that MTVDI can better reflect the seasonal variation of canopy photosynthesis compared to other indicators.

Leaf surface water, not plant water stress, drives diurnal variation in tropical forest canopy water content

Xiangtao Xu et al.

Summary: The study found that leaf surface water (LWs) has a significant impact on the diurnal variation of canopy water content (CWC), despite LWs accounting for a small percentage of CWC. Ignoring LWs weakens the relationship between CWC and VOD. The contribution of LWs to CWC variation decreases over longer time scales.

Time-variations of zeroth-order vegetation absorption and scattering at L-band

Martin J. Baur et al.

Summary: This study retrieved VOD and omega as well as kappa(a) and kappa(s) in two separate tau-omega model frameworks using known soil moisture information. Sensitivity analysis showed that vegetation attenuation has a significant impact on the retrieval's sensitivity to noise. Omega dynamics were found to be large in drylands and deserts, decreasing rapidly with increasing vegetation cover.

Summary: This study comprehensively evaluated six model-and satellite-based surface soil temperature (ST) products using ground observations, with GEOS-5 showing the best performance and ERA5 showing improvements compared to ERA-Interim. Model-based ST products generally underestimate ground ST, with biases increasing with soil temperature and moisture, especially in certain climate zones and elevations.

Summary: The vegetation optical depth (VOD) is a vegetation index related to microwave extinction effects within the vegetation canopy layer, increasingly used for ecological applications. Different VOD products show varying abilities in monitoring vegetation features, depending on algorithms and satellite frequencies. VOD sensitivity increases with frequency, offering capacities to monitor seasonal changes of vegetation components and biomass.

Carbon loss from forest degradation exceeds that from deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon

Yuanwei Qin et al.

Summary: Forest loss in the Brazilian Amazon was higher in 2019 than in 2015, potentially due to loosened forest protection policies. Despite this, the net AGB loss in 2019 was three times smaller than in 2015, with forest degradation contributing three times more to the total AGB loss than deforestation.

Interannual Variations of Vegetation Optical Depth are Due to Both Water Stress and Biomass Changes

Alexandra G. Konings et al.

Summary: Recent studies on the relationship between VOD and biomass suggest that although they are highly correlated spatially, their temporal anomalies are almost uncorrelated. At a regional scale, VOD anomalies are more likely to be related to water stress, rather than biomass. Therefore, caution should be exercised when deriving biomass anomalies from VOD data, as they may be influenced by water stress factors.

Summary: In a warming climate, understanding forest responses to water stress is becoming increasingly important as droughts become more common and extreme. Remote sensing measurements of vegetation water content (VWC) offer a valuable tool in enhancing our understanding of tree responses to water stress, and can advance the science and applications of global forest vulnerability to future droughts.
