TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of fire disturbance on both direct carbon emissions and net terrestrial ecosystem carbon balance in North America was investigated, and the authors found that fire-caused direct emissions were 106.55 ± 15.98 Tg C/yr during 1990-2012; however, the net ecosystem carbon imbalance associated with fire was -26.09 ± 5.22 TgC/yr, indicating that most of the emitted carbon was re-sequestered by the terrestrial ecosystem.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a model (REGIME) to quantify ecosystem carbon storage capacities under varying disturbance regimes with an analytical solution E[x] = U {center_dot} {tau}{sub E} {center-dot}{lambda}{lambda} + s{tau} 1, where U is ecosystem carbon influx, τ is ecosystem residence time, and τ is the residence time of the carbon pool affected by disturbances (biomass pool in this study).

TL;DR: In this article, the spatial distribution of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and quantified modeling uncertainty across Mexico and the conterminous United States (CONUS) were predicted using a multisource SOC dataset.
