Sentences with phrase «vegetation growth uses»

Not exact matches

Water entitlements are used by environmental water managers to improve water quality, increase native fish and bird populations and promote the growth of native vegetation, among other benefits.

With the data they simulated 130 years of growth following the Yellowstone Fires using a computer model calibrated to the study area and used by forest and land managers around the U.S., called the Forest Vegetation Simulator.

Positive: Increased vegetation water use and increased growth and productivity as a result of longer growing season

If it takes 100 plus years to double the concentration of CO2, and if the equilibrium response is a 2C increase (Pierrehumbert, «Principles of Planetary Climate», p 623), and if the increased CO2 produces increased vegetation and crop growth, then the present rate of development of non-fossil fuel power and fuel generation is more appropriate than an Apollo type project or attempt to get rid of all fossil fuel use by 2050 starting now as fast as can be done.

It uses data on vegetation growth (strictly speaking, «gross primary productivity») from 1901 to 2010.

Six Chinese scientists used remotely - sensed imaging data, including leaf area index (LAI), normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), an enhanced vegetation index (EVI), gross primary production (GPP) and net primary production (NPP), coupled with other data (temperature, soil moisture, evapotranspiration, albedo and wind) over the period 2003 to 2014 to analyze the effects of a wind farm on summer vegetative growth in a region of northern China.

Altogether, therefore, common sense suggests that with the plant productivity gains that result from the aerial fertilization effect of the ongoing rise in atmospheric CO2, plus its transpiration - reducing effect that boosts plant water use efficiency, along with its stress - alleviating effect that lessens the negative growth impacts of resource limitations and environmental constraints, the world's vegetation possesses an ideal set of abilities to reap a tremendous benefit from what the President inaccurately terms «carbon pollution» in the years and decades to come.

You need to burn a lot of vegetation to give a descernable increase in the (ice or other) records, the more that fresh growth within the following years rapidely uses a lot of CO2.

They have not taken into account population growth, economic expansion, or land use changes that degrade vegetation and soils.
