A large and persistent carbon sink in the world's forests
The terrestrial carbon sink has been large in recent decades, but its size and location remain
uncertain. Using forest inventory data and long-term ecosystem carbon studies, we estimate …

Patterns and drivers of recent disturbances across the temperate forest biome
Increasing evidence indicates that forest disturbances are changing in response to global
change, yet local variability in disturbance remains high. We quantified this considerable …

High carbon dioxide uptake by subtropical forest ecosystems in the East Asian monsoon region
Temperate-and high-latitude forests have been shown to contribute a carbon sink in the
Northern Hemisphere, but fewer studies have addressed the carbon balance of the …

Global‐scale impacts of nitrogen deposition on tree carbon sequestration in tropical, temperate, and boreal forests: A meta‐analysis
Elevated nitrogen (N) deposition may increase net primary productivity in N‐limited
terrestrial ecosystems and thus enhance the terrestrial carbon (C) sink. To assess the …

Drought timing and local climate determine the sensitivity of eastern temperate forests to drought
Projected changes in temperature and drought regime are likely to reduce carbon (C)
storage in forests, thereby amplifying rates of climate change. While such reductions are …
