Metabolic compensation constrains the temperature dependence of gross primary production [PDF]
Abstract Gross primary production ( GPP ) is the largest flux in the carbon cycle, yet its response to global warming is highly uncertain. The temperature dependence of GPP is directly linked to photosynthetic physiology, but the ...

Biophsyical constraints on gross primary production by the terrestrial biosphere [PDF]
Persistent divergences among the predictions of complex carbon-cycle models include differences in the sign as well as the magnitude of the response of global terrestrial primary production to climate change. Such problems with current models indicate an

Seasonality of gross primary production in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil
The approach to carbon sequestration by ecosystems is critical to mitigating the damage and consequences of their effects at regional and global levels. Thus, this study was based on the hypothesis that Atlantic Forest regions have a relevant capacity of

Underestimates of Grassland Gross Primary Production in MODIS Standard Products [PDF]
As the biggest carbon flux of terrestrial ecosystems from photosynthesis, gross primary productivity (GPP) is an important indicator in understanding the carbon cycle and biogeochemical process of terrestrial ecosystems.

Global cropland monthly gross primary production in the year 2000 [PDF]
Croplands cover about 12% of the ice-free terrestrial land surface. Compared with natural ecosystems, croplands have distinct characteristics due to anthropogenic influences.

Vegetation modulates the impact of climate extremes on gross primary production [PDF]
Drought and heat events affect the uptake and sequestration of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems. Factors such as the duration, timing, and intensity of extreme events influence the magnitude of impacts on ecosystem processes such as gross primary ...

Extreme events in gross primary production: a characterization across continents [PDF]
Climate extremes can affect the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems, for instance via a reduction of the photosynthetic capacity or alterations of respiratory processes. Yet the dominant regional and seasonal effects of hydrometeorological extremes are

Addressing Challenges in Simulating Inter–Annual Variability of Gross Primary Production [PDF]
A long‐standing challenge in studying the global carbon cycle has been understanding the factors controlling inter–annual variation (IAV) of carbon fluxes, and improving their representations in existing biogeochemical models.

Effects of Aerosols on Gross Primary Production from Ecosystems to the Globe
Aerosols affect the gross primary productivity (GPP) of plants by absorbing and scattering solar radiation. However, it is still an open question whether and to what extent the effects of aerosol on the diffuse fraction (Df) can enhance GPP globally.
