Five decades of northern land carbon uptake revealed by the interhemispheric CO2 gradient [PDF]

, 2019
The global land and ocean carbon sinks have increased proportionally with increasing carbon dioxide emissions during the past decades 1 . It is thought that Northern Hemisphere lands make a dominant contribution to the global land carbon sink 2–7 ...

Assisted tree migration can preserve the European forest carbon sink under climate change

Nature Climate Change
Climate change threatens the role of European forests as a long-term carbon sink. Assisted migration aims to increase the resilience of forest tree populations to climate change, using species-specific climatic limits and local adaptations through ...

Integrating the evidence for a terrestrial carbon sink caused by increasing atmospheric CO2.

New Phytologist, 2020
Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2 ]) is increasing, which increases leaf-scale photosynthesis and intrinsic water-use efficiency. These direct responses have the potential to increase plant growth, vegetation biomass, and soil organic matter;

Forest Type Shapes Soil Microbial Carbon Metabolism: A Metagenomic Study of Subtropical Forests on Lushan Mountain

Microorganisms
Forest type strongly influences soil microbial community composition and associated carbon cycling, yet its influence on microbial functional traits remains poorly understood.

Drought rapidly diminishes the large net CO2 uptake in 2011 over semi-arid Australia [PDF]

, 2016
Each year, terrestrial ecosystems absorb more than a quarter of the anthropogenic carbon emissions, termed as land carbon sink. An exceptionally large land carbon sink anomaly was recorded in 2011, of which more than half was attributed to Australia ...

Drought response of the boreal forest carbon sink is driven by understorey–tree composition

Nature Geoscience
The boreal forest is an important global carbon sink, but its response to drought remains uncertain. Here, we compiled biometric- and chamber-based flux data from 50 boreal forest stands to assess the impact of the 2018 European summer drought on net ...

Evaluation of the Carbon Sink Capacity of the Proposed Kunlun Mountain National Park

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
National parks, as an important type of nature protected areas, are the cornerstone that can effectively maintain biodiversity and mitigate global climate change. At present, China is making every effort to build a nature-protection system, with national

Rock weathering and carbon sink effects under exogenous acid action: A case study of the Yanggong river

Carsologica Sinica
Rock weathering in the river basin is not only an essential carbon source and sink mechanism, but also an important link in the global carbon cycle. Rivers are indispensable components of water bodies, and the hydrochemistry of rivers is a representation

Strong carbon cycle feedbacks in a climate model with interactive CO2 and sulphate aerosols [PDF]

, 2003
Carbon cycle feedbacks are a significant source of uncertainty in climate change projections, with the potential for strong positive feedbacks to accelerate the rate of anthropogenic global warming during the 21st century.

The Terrestrial Carbon Sink [PDF]

Annual Review of Environment and Resources, 2018
Life on Earth comes in many forms, but all life-forms share a common element in carbon. It is the basic building block of biology, and by trapping radiation it also plays an important role in maintaining the Earth's atmosphere at a temperature hospitable to life. Like all matter, carbon can neither be created nor destroyed, but instead is continuously
