Journal ArticleDOI

Asynchronous carbon sink saturation in African and Amazonian tropical forests

Wannes Hubau, +132 more
- 04 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: Overall, the uptake of carbon into Earth’s intact tropical forests peaked in the 1990s and independent observations indicating greater recent carbon uptake into the Northern Hemisphere landmass reinforce the conclusion that the intact tropical forest carbon sink has already peaked.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compositional response of Amazon forests to climate change

Adriane Esquivel-Muelbert, +111 more
TL;DR: A slow shift to a more dry‐affiliated Amazonia is underway, with changes in compositional dynamics consistent with climate‐change drivers, but yet to significantly impact whole‐community composition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity and carbon storage across the tropical forest biome

Martin J. P. Sullivan, +124 more
- 17 Jan 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a pan-tropical dataset of 360 plots located in structurally intact old-growth closed-canopy forest, surveyed using standardised methods, allowing a multi-scale evaluation of diversity-carbon relationships in tropical forests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term thermal sensitivity of Earth’s tropical forests

Martin J. P. Sullivan, +250 more
- 22 May 2020 - 
TL;DR: This synthesis of plot networks across climatic and biogeographic gradients shows that forest thermal sensitivity is dominated by high daytime temperatures, and biome-wide variation in tropical forest carbon stocks and dynamics shows long-term resilience to increasing high temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term carbon sink in Borneo’s forests halted by drought and vulnerable to edge effects

Lan Qie, +57 more
TL;DR: Using direct on-the-ground observations, the authors confirm that remaining intact forests in Borneo have provided a long-term carbon sink, but carbon net gains are vulnerable to drought and edge effects.
