Assessing the potential for carbon storage enhancement in forests of Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, China by Zhizhong Chen, Mei Zan, Jingjing Kong

“…This study integrates multi-source remote sensing and forest inventory data to model Xinjiang’s forest age and carbon density (2019 baseline: 186.76 Mg/hm2 biomass, 93.38 Mg/hm2 carbon density, 46-year average age), revealing a south-to-north “low-high-low” spatial pattern. Using predictive models excluding anthropogenic and natural disturbances, we project forest carbon stock to reach 203.71 ± 2.31 Tg C by 2030 and 283.08 ± 4.23 Tg C by 2060, with declining carbon sink rates (3.67 ± 0.57 Tg C/a in 2019–2030 vs. 2.65 ± 0.56 Tg C/a in 2031–2060). …”

Time-Series Forecasting Method Based on Hierarchical Spatio-Temporal Attention Mechanism by Zhiguo Xiao, Junli Liu, Xinyao Cao, Ke Wang, Dongni Li, Qian Liu

“…Breaking through traditional structural designs, the model employs a Squeeze-and-Excitation Network (SENet) to reconstruct the convolutional layers of the Temporal Convolutional Network (TCN), strengthening the feature expression of key time steps through dynamic channel weight allocation to address the redundancy issue of traditional causal convolutions in local pattern capture. A Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit (BiGRU) variant based on a global attention mechanism is designed, leveraging the collaboration between gating units and attention weights to mine cross-period long-distance dependencies and effectively alleviate the gradient disappearance problem of Recurrent Neural Network (RNN-like) models in multi-scale time-series analysis. …”
