This project aims to accurately quantify emissions from deforestation by focusing on fire-related carbon emissions. It combines satellite data and biogeochemical modeling to assess the impact of burning vegetation on climate change, ultimately improving our understanding of the Earth's carbon sinks.
The land and oceans have mitigated climate change by taking up about half of the anthropogenic CO2 emitted since the industrial revolution.
However, these ‘sinks’ are predicted to lose their efficiency.
Globally, the combined sink strength of the land and ocean can be calculated indirectly as the difference between anthropogenic emissions – from fossil fuel burning and deforestation – and the atmospheric CO2 increase.
However, large uncertainty in the deforestation term masks out potential chang…
