Carbon cycle

  1. EMAC model matched global atmospheric hydrogen observations
    EMAC earth system model accurately simulates global atmospheric hydrogen dynamics, achieving correlation coefficients exceeding 0.9 at remote polar stations against observational data.
  2. Extreme 2023 drought turned the Amazon into a weak carbon source
    2023 Amazon drought reduced vegetation carbon uptake, turning the region into a weak carbon source independent of fire emissions, revealing climate vulnerability.
  3. Global grassland productivity dataset spans 1958–2100
    Gridded aboveground net primary productivity dataset for global grasslands from 1958-2100, combining historical observations with future climate projections for carbon and land management research.
  4. Old dissolved carbon from permafrost thaw accumulates in Siberian lakes
    Study reveals that up to 75% of dissolved organic carbon in Siberian thermokarst lakes originates from permafrost thaw, yet this ancient carbon accumulates rather than rapidly converting to.
  5. Primary boreal forests store more carbon than secondary forests
    Study reveals primary boreal forests in Sweden store 72% more carbon than managed secondary forests, with significant implications for global carbon cycling and forest management policies.
  6. Lake Mai Ndombe emits multiple greenhouse gases year-round
    Study quantifies greenhouse gas emissions from Lake Mai Ndombe, Africa's largest humic lake, revealing sedimentary processes drive CO2, CH4, and N2O cycling and evasion.
