报告简介

Land carbon storage plays a prominent role in global carbon cycling, but its dynamics and projections remain highly uncertain. Thus we are unable to confidently predict changes in land carbon storage and its feedbacks to climate under global change. In this talk, I will show how the ground-based observations and a model-data integrated approach help us better understand the crucial ecological processes such as forest demography and structure (size vs density) and biogeography of soil microbial composition and root nutrients in influencing land carbon storage under global change. First, I will present the examples of leveraging large scale forest inventory datasets, Earth system models and dynamic vegetation models to understand spatiotemporal dynamics of forest net primary productivity and carbon turnover time, which together impact carbon stock change in forests. Second, I will show how the biogeography of soil microbial composition and root nutrients by linking above-ground and below-ground processes improve our predictions of land carbon storage.
