The tropical forest carbon cycle and climate change
ETA Mitchard - Nature, 2018 - nature.com
Tropical forests make an approximately neutral contribution to the global carbon cycle, with
intact and recovering forests taking in as much carbon as is released through deforestation …

Global patterns and controls of soil organic carbon dynamics as simulated by multiple terrestrial biosphere models: Current status and future directions
Soil is the largest organic carbon (C) pool of terrestrial ecosystems, and C loss from soil
accounts for a large proportion of land‐atmosphere C exchange. Therefore, a small change …

Atmosphere–soil carbon transfer as a function of soil depth
The exchange of carbon between soil organic carbon (SOC) and the atmosphere affects the
climate, and—because of the importance of organic matter to soil fertility—agricultural …
