 Modeling the History of Terrestrial Carbon Sources and Sinks

by Steve Pacala

We report modeling experiments with a new global dynamic land model (LM3V), to reconstruct possible causes of the terrestrial carbon sources and sinks over the past century. The model is unique, in that it is capable of representing the global history of land use, including the management of secondary forests (those forests that have re-grown at least once following harvest). Several published carbon inventories attribute the majority of the carbon sink caused by land use in the temperate zone to the management of secondary forests.

I was wondering if you included fire into your land-use, since you were only talking about harvest.I would like to know if you would archieve the good fit with the ENSO climate events without accounting for fires. Especially since you modeled harvest like fire (immediate loss).by C. Czimczik
