About

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 or regions, and include those relating to methods/algorithms, land cover, habitat and change frameworks, futures, validation and map products.
