Maximum Return Portfolio for Natural Climate Solutions
NATURE-BASED CLIMATE SOLUTIONS: TECHNIQUES AND CHALLENGES FOR MEASURING, MODELING, AND PREDICTING TERRESTRIAL CARBON FLUXES ACROSS SCALES I POSTER
global environmental change | 15 december 2023
Sara Cerasoli, Amilcare M. Porporato
Nature-based climate solutions (NbCS) have a great potential to achieve up to one-third of emission reductions, but uncertainties surrounding their ef...

Eikonal Representation for Landscapes with Threshold Hillslopes
FROM RIDGELINES TO VALLEYS: HILLSLOPE PROCESSES AND MORPHOLOGY ACROSS SCALES II POSTER
earth and planetary surface processes | 15 december 2023
Shashank Kumar Anand, Matteo Bernard Bertagni, Arv...
Natural terrains often feature steep, nearly flat hillslopes that are stable up to a threshold angle, known as the angle of repose. In this study, we ...

Global Distribution of Climatic Aridity
GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS
11 october 2023
Jun Yin, Amilcare M. Porporato

Aridity exerts fundamental controls on terrestrial hydrology with impacts on ecosystems and society. Here we show that the global distribution of d...
