I'm happy to share a paper in Science Advances that makes the case for a weak land carbon sink, drawing upon JPL and Chloris biomass time series. To close the budget with a net land sink of 0.8 Pg C/y from 2000-2019, we propose increases in the ocean sink and decreases in fossil fuel emissions.

Hah! These papers are great! We just explored the opposite relationship: fire before drought confers drought resilience in conifers (less drought-induced tree mortality).

I guess these results together mean the system won't get out of control ...

Thanks Jeff!
