Publications

Living Earth is a science-based initiative and every effort is made to publish our approaches and outcomes in peer-reviewed journals and books. Articles may be globally-relevant or specific to countries (e.g., Australia, Wales) or regions (Southeast Asia) and include those relating to methods/algorithms, land cover, habitat and change frameworks and map products.

A globally relevant change taxonomy and evidence‐based change framework for land monitoring. Global Change Biology, 28(21), pp.6293-6317. (https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.16346).
