  • Contrasting and interacting changes in simulated spring and summer carbon cycle extremes in European ecosystems

    Open AccessSebastian Sippel, Matthias Forkel et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    Climate extremes have the potential to cause extreme responses of terrestrial ecosystem functioning. However, it is neither straightforward to quantify and predict extreme ecosystem responses, nor to attribute these responses to specific climate drivers. Here, we construct a factorial experiment based on a large ensemble of process-oriented ecosystem model simulations driven by a regional climate model (12 500 model years in 1985–2010) in six Eur…

  • Modelling terrestrial vegetation dynamics and carbon cycling for an abrupt climatic change event

    Open AccessMarko Scholze, Wolfgang Knorr et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2003References: 4

    Abrupt climatic changes have occurred several times in the past, leading to large-scale modifications of vegetation patterns with important consequences for the global carbon cycle. Dynamic global vegetation models (DGVM) constitute an advanced tool for reconstructing past or predicting future shifts in vegetation distributions in response to climatic change on a global scale. The Lund-Potsdam-Jena (LPJ) model is a DGVM that also includes a compl…

  • Low-Level Gas Proportional Counting in An Underground Laboratory

    Open AccessH H Loosli, Martin Heimann et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1980Cited by: 7References: 3

    Results of measurements in an underground laboratory, 70m of water equivalent below surface, are given. Background values of proportional gas counters with volumes between 16cc and 1.5L are lower by a factor of 2—4.5 compared to the values in the previously used laboratory (7m w.e.). High counting gas pressures, up to 5 at CH 4 and up to 36 at P-10, enable the use of relatively small counters with correspondingly small background contributions fr…

  • C Variations Caused by Changes in the Global Carbon Cycle

    Open AccessUlrich Siegenthaler, Martin Heimann et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon1980Cited by: 16References: 24

    A box-diffusion model for the carbon cycle is used to estimate the magnitude of 14 C variations caused by changes of reservoir sizes and exchange fluxes in the global carbon system. The influence of changes in atmospheric CO 2 concentration, biomass, CO 2 exchange rate between atmosphere and ocean, and ocean mixing is considered. Steady-state 14 C concentrations as well as the transients are calculated. For changing biomass, atmospheric CO 2 leve…
