China News Service, Beijing, March 25 (Reporter Sun Zifa) The internationally renowned academic journal "Nature" recently published a climate change research paper.
The paper stated that since the current terrestrial carbon sink model does not account for this trade-off relationship, future forecast data may need to be revised.
According to reports, terrestrial ecosystems can remove approximately 30% of carbon dioxide emitted by human activities each year.
There is a hypothesis that rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels will increase the carbon sequestration capacity of plants and soils, but research by the corresponding author of the latest published paper, César Terrer of Stanford University, and colleagues shows that this may not be the case.
The author of the paper pointed out that this mutual growth and decline relationship may be related to the way plants obtain nutrients.
