Vegetation Functional Properties Determine Uncertainty of Simulated Ecosystem Productivity: A Traceability Analysis in the East Asian Monsoon Region
(2020-04-02)
Global and regional projections of climate change by Earth system models are limited by their uncertain estimates of terrestrial ecosystem productivity. At the middle to low latitudes, the East Asian monsoon region has ...
Effect of nitrogen deposition on China’s terrestrial carbon uptake in the context of multifactor environmental changes
(2023-09-20)
The amount of atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposited on the land surface has
increased globally and by nearly five times in China from 1901 to 2005. Little is known about
how elevated reactive N input has affected the carbon ...
Long-term trends in evapotranspiration and runoff over the drainage basins of the Gulf of Mexico during 19012008
(2020-04-01)
The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) is facing large pressures from environmental changes since
the beginning of the last century. However, the magnitude and long-term trend of total water
discharge to the GOM and the underlying ...
Improving Representation of Crop Growth and Yield in the Dynamic Land Ecosystem Model and Its Application to China
(2022-07-29)
To accurately assess the roles of agriculture in securing food security and maintaining environmental sustainability, it is essential to improve the representation of crop growth, development, and yield formation in global ...
Net exchanges of CO2, CH4, and N2O between China's terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere and their contributions to global climate warming
(2022-10-25)
China's terrestrial ecosystems have been recognized as an atmospheric CO2 sink; however, it is uncertain whether this sink can alleviate global warming given the fluxes of CH4 and N2O. In this study, we used a process-based ...
Temperature Changes in Central Asia from 1979 to 2011 Based on Multiple Datasets*
(2022-03-03)
The arid and semiarid region in central Asia is sensitive and vulnerable to climate variations. However, the sparse and highly unevenly distributed meteorological stations in the region provide limited data for understanding ...
Responses of global terrestrial evapotranspiration to climate change and increasing atmospheric CO2 in the 21st century
(2023-06-17)
Quantifying the spatial and temporal patterns of the water lost to the atmosphere through land surface evapotranspiration (ET) is essential for understanding the global hydrological cycle, but remains much uncertain. In ...
Effects of tropospheric ozone pollution on net primary productivity and carbon storage in terrestrial ecosystems of China
(2022-12-05)
We investigated the potential effects of elevated ozone (O-3) along with climate variability, increasing CO2, and land use change on net primary productivity (NPP) and carbon storage in China's terrestrial ecosystems for ...
Spatial and temporal patterns of nitrogen deposition in China: Synthesis of observational data
(2022-11-07)
[1] Anthropogenic nitrous pollutant emissions in China significantly increased during the last decades, which contributed to the accelerated nitrogen ( N) deposition. In order to characterize spatial pattern of nitrogen ...
Century-long increasing trend and variability of dissolved organic carbon export from the Mississippi River basin driven by natural and anthropogenic forcing
(2020-04-02)
There has been considerable debate as to how natural forcing and anthropogenic activities alter the timing and magnitude of the delivery of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the coastal ocean, which has ramifications for ...
