Enhancing the terrestrial ecosystem carbon sink (referred to as terrestrial C sink) is an
important way to slow down the continuous increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) …

Quantifying ecosystem carbon fluxes and stocks is essential for better understanding the
global carbon cycle and improving projections of the carbon-climate feedbacks. Remote …

A global network of long‐term carbon and water flux measurements has existed since the
late 1990s. With its representative sampling of the terrestrial biosphere's climate and …

Quantifying global terrestrial photosynthesis is essential to understanding the global carbon
cycle and the climate system. Remote sensing has played a pivotal role in advancing our …

As the lifetime of regional flux networks approach twenty years, there is a growing number of
papers that have published long term records (5 years or more) of net carbon fluxes …

The application of the eddy covariance flux method to measure fluxes of trace gas and
energy between ecosystems and the atmosphere has exploded over the past 25 years. This …

Box 9E. 1 Continued FIGURE 2. The C–S–R triangle model (Grime 1979). The strategies at
the three corners are C, competiti-winning species; S, stress-tolerating s-cies; R …

Forest systems cover more than 4.1× 109 hectares of the Earth's land area. Globally, forest
vegetation and soils contain about 1146 petagrams of carbon, with approximately 37 …

This report is the first complete assessment of the science of climate change since Working
Group I (WGI) of the IPCC produced its second report Climate Change 1995: The Science of …

This paper presents a modeling approach aimed at seasonal resolution of global climatic
and edaphic controls on patterns of terrestrial ecosystem production and soil microbial …
