Session ID#: 12575

Session Description:
Predictions of future atmospheric CO2 levels are influenced by global carbon and nutrient cycles, climate interactions, and feedbacks. Relevant processes operate at different spatial and temporal scales and vary across terrestrial, coastal, and marine ecosystems. Uncertain biogeochemical feedbacks may be altered by anthropogenic disturbance agents, including tropospheric O3, acceleration of the N and H2O cycles, eutrophication, and land cover/use change. This session focuses on integrated understanding of feedback mechanisms, methods for evaluating and benchmarking process representations in Earth system models, and approaches for constraining future climate projections (e.g., emergent constraints).
