TL;DR: To reduce the uncertainties and to improve the precision of the predictions of the impacts of climate change and human activities on biogeochemical cycles, efforts should focus on conducting more field observation studies, integrating data within improved models, and developing new knowledge about coupling among carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus bioge biochemical cycles.

TL;DR: In this paper, a light use efficiency model, called EC-LUE, was developed by using only four variables: normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), air temperature, and the Bowen ratio of sensible to latent heat flux.

TL;DR: This finding indicates that the implementation of the ecological restoration projects in China has significantly increased ecosystem C sequestration across the country and demonstrates that these restoration projects have substantially contributed to CO2 mitigation in China.

TL;DR: The integrated eddy covariance observations established in the 1990s and 2000s are integrated to show that East Asian monsoon subtropical forests between 20°N and 40°N represent an average net ecosystem productivity (NEP) of 362 ± 39 g C m−2 yr−1 (mean ± 1 SE).

TL;DR: The results update the estimates of carbon pools in China’s terrestrial ecosystems based on direct field measurements, essential to the validation and parameterization of carbon models in China and globally.
