This research paper uses InVEST and Land Change Modeler (LCM) to analyze the relationship between land use and land cover (LULC) changes and carbon storage in the Senapati district of Manipur, India, comparing 'Business as Usual' (BAU) and 'Environmentally Sound Planning' (ESP) scenarios for 2029.

This research paper analyzes the spatiotemporal variability of fire dynamics and the resulting environmental, social, and economic costs in Acre, Brazil, between 2008 and 2012, with a specific focus on the extreme drought of 2010.

This research paper evaluates carbon sequestration and land use and cover (LULC) transitions in Thailand's Lower Songkhram River Basin (LSRB) using Land Change Modeler (LCM) and InVEST, comparing a business-as-usual scenario against a conservation scenario for 2040.

This research paper by the Stockholm Environment Institute analyzes land use and land cover (LULC) data from 2001, 2011, and 2021 to project outcomes for 2050 in four arid and semiarid counties in Kenya. The study evaluates three scenarios—achieving 10% forest cover, converting forests to croplands, and restoring degraded forests—to guide sustainable land management and meet Kenyan government climate commitments.

This research paper uses China as a case study to examine how economic development influences vulnerability to climate-related disasters, finding that while economic growth reduces human fatalities, it is associated with an increase in direct economic losses.
