Tree lifespan decline in forests could neutralize part of rise in net carbon uptake
Publicado em 02 dezembro 2020
Accelerating tree growth in recent years has been accompanied by a reduction in tree lifespan, which could eventually neutralize part of the increase in net uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2). This trade-off between tree growth and life expectancy applies to forests worldwide, including in the Amazon and other tropical regions, as well as temperate regions and the Arctic.
Models and projections of future forest carbon uptake based on the existing system may therefore overestimate the capacity of [...]
