CO2 sources - Land use change
Soil disturbance and increased rates of decomposition in converted soils can both lead to emission of carbon to the atmosphere, with increased soil erosion and leaching of soil nutrients further reducing the ... to the atmosphere in years to come. Indeed, having degraded large areas of the terrestrial carbon sink, sensitive land-use change may in fact provide a sink for atmospheric greenhouse gases ...

Optimisation Intercomparison Project (OptIC)
Intercomparison Project (OptIC) The aim of the OptIC project was to comparatively evaluate several parameter estimation and data assimilation methods for the task of parameterising terrestrial carbon cycle and biogeochemical models from multiple data sources, particularly remotely sensed data. The approach was through an international intercomparison of data assimilation and parameter estimation ...

SAF - About Forestry: Facts on Forests Around the World
Forests are a major factor in the climate change issue. Forest ecosystems contain more than half of all terrestrial carbon, and account for about 80 per cent of the exchange of carbon ... the atmosphere. Deforestation in the 1980s may have accounted for a quarter of all human-induced carbon emissions, the second greatest emitter after fossil fuels. Forest plantations comprise 5 percent of the world ...
