Climate change has been partially mitigated by an increasing net land carbon sink in the
terrestrial biosphere; understanding the processes that drive this sink is thus essential for …

Amazonian environments are being degraded by modern industrial and agricultural
activities at a pace far above anything previously known, imperiling its vast biodiversity …

Climate tip** points occur when change in a part of the climate system becomes self-
perpetuating beyond a warming threshold, leading to substantial Earth system impacts …

Learning from the quantum and information theories, we provide a new definition of value,
which is expected to help economists relax assumptions and loosen established economic …

Evidence exists that tree mortality is accelerating in some regions of the tropics,, with
profound consequences for the future of the tropical carbon sink and the global …

Avoiding catastrophic climate change requires rapid decarbonization and improved
ecosystem stewardship at a planetary scale. The carbon released through the burning of …

The globally important carbon sink of intact, old-growth tropical humid forests is declining
because of climate change, deforestation and degradation from fire and logging …

The possibility that the Amazon forest system could soon reach a tip** point, inducing
large-scale collapse, has raised global concern,–. For 65 million years, Amazonian forests …

Tropical forests store 40–50 per cent of terrestrial vegetation carbon. However, spatial
variations in aboveground live tree biomass carbon (AGC) stocks remain poorly understood …

The tropical forest carbon sink is known to be drought sensitive, but it is unclear which
forests are the most vulnerable to extreme events. Forests with hotter and drier baseline …
