Spatiotemporal dynamics of carbon, water, and energy balance in Bangladesh using multi-source remote sensing and climate data
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Exploring the complex interactions between climate variables and ecosystem processes is crucial for understanding long-term environmental changes. This study examines the spatiotemporal dynamics of carbon, water and energy fluxes and their impacts on ecosystem processes in Bangladesh from 2005 to 2022 utilizing multi-source remote sensing and ground-based meteorological data. Carbon dynamics are estimated through gross primary productivity (GPP), net primary production (NPP), and ecosystem respiration (RE). Water and energy balances are derived from evapotranspiration (ET), water use efficiency (WUE), net radiation (Rn), and latent heat (LE). Our estimates indicate that GPP varied from 2351.29 g C m -2 y -1 in 2009 to 2178.45 g C m -2 y -1 in 2020, while NPP ranged from 1248.13 g C m -2 y -1 in 2012 to 929.46 g C m -2 y -1 in 2020, reflecting temporal variations in photosynthetic efficiency and carbon storage. The ratio of LE/Rn was found to vary from 0.72 to 1.01, with an average of 83%, indicating that a significant portion of the radiative energy was transferred to the atmosphere as turbulent flux. Validation of LUE-based GPP compared to FLUXCOM-GPP showed a moderate correlation (R 2 = 0.61, p < 0.005), supporting the reliability of the estimates. We also conducted multivariate regression analysis to assess the relationships between climate variables and carbon, water, and energy balance. The results indicate that photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) is the primary and dominant driver of GPP (R 2 = 0.97), while temperature and precipitation are key factors significantly influencing carbon uptake. This study presents a comprehensive, integrated assessment of carbon, water, and energy fluxes at the national scale across Bangladesh, emphasizing the crucial role of climate variables in shaping these fluxes and offering valuable insights for climate-resilient land management and sustainable carbon strategies in monsoon-dominated regions. • Agricultural ecosystems dominate terrestrial ecosystem productivity. • Evergreen forests exhibit stable carbon uptake, while deciduous forests fluctuate. • Gross carbon uptake is highly regulated by photosynthetically active radiation. • Total carbon uptake decreased from 1254 MtCO 2 e in 2005 to 1240 MtCO 2 e in 2022. • Energy, water, and carbon flux variations emphasize climate resilience strategies.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
