Radiocarbon analysis reveals that Earth system models underestimate the carbon uptake in terrestrial ecosystems and suggest quicker carbon turnover

Scientists Skeptical of Anthropogenic Global Warming - indicates that existing Earth system models might be underestimating how much carbon terrestrial vegetation and soils absorb. - Gus Mahlr
  • Radiocarbon analysis from nuclear bomb tests in the 1960s indicates that existing Earth system models might be underestimating how much carbon terrestrial vegetation and soils absorb. 
  • However, according to the researchers, this carbon storage is more temporary than once believed. 
  • This implies that man-made carbon dioxide may not remain in the terrestrial biosphere as long as current models suggest. 
  • For climate predictions to be precise and to aid in crafting effective climate policies, it’s essential to accurately represent the global carbon cycle...
