Abstract:
The response of terrestrial and marine ecosystems to rising carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentrations has serious implications for projections of climate change in the coming decades. Ecosystems store vast amounts of carbon, which, if destabilized, could amplify climate change ( 1 ). They also provide multiple services to society, from food and shelter to recreation and well-being. Changes in ecosystems and their productivity at the global scale could have fundamental implications for society’s future. On page 1145 of this issue, Yang et al. ( 2 ) reconstruct changes in global biosphere productivity during the past eight glaciations over about 800,000 years and provide insights into the sensitivity of global ecosystems to CO 2 concentrations and climate change.
