Anthropogenic land cover changes (LCC) affect regional and global climate through biophysical variations of the surface energy budget mediated by albedo, evapotranspiration, roughness. This change in may exacerbate or counteract biogeochemical greenhouse gas effects LCC, with a large body emerging assessments being produced, sometimes apparently contradictory. We reviewed existing scientific literature objective to provide an overview state-of-the-knowledge LCC effects, support assessment...
Abstract. In support of the global stocktake Paris Agreement on climate change, this study presents a comprehensive framework to process results an ensemble atmospheric inversions in order make their net ecosystem exchange (NEE) carbon dioxide (CO2) flux suitable for evaluating national greenhouse gas inventories (NGHGIs) submitted by countries United Nations Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC). From we also deduced anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions regrouped into fossil and...
Land use and land cover change (LULCC) affects the climate through both biogeochemical (BGC) biophysical (BPH) mechanisms. While BGC effects are assessed at global scale heart of treaties such as Paris Agreement, BPH totally absent despite their increasingly recognized impact, especially local scale. This stems from complexity in characterizing impacts scale, which makes it impractical to offer clear advices for development policies. To overcome this barrier, we built a prototype an...
Abstract. Reliable quantification of the sources and sinks atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), including that their trends uncertainties, is essential to monitoring progress in mitigating anthropogenic emissions under Kyoto Protocol Paris Agreement. This study provides a consolidated synthesis estimates for all natural CO2 European Union UK (EU27 + UK), derived from combination state-of-the-art bottom-up (BU) top-down (TD) data models. Given wide scope work variety datasets involved, this...
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emission inventories represent the link between national and international political actions on climate change, environmental sciences. Inventory agencies need to include, in GHG inventories, removal estimates based scientific data following specific reporting guidance under United Nation Framework Convention Climate Change (UNFCCC) Paris Agreement, using methodologies defined Intergovernmental Panel (IPCC) Guidelines. Often however, research communities inventory have...
Abstract. Reliable quantification of the sources and sinks greenhouse gases, together with trends uncertainties, is essential to monitoring progress in mitigating anthropogenic emissions under Paris Agreement. This study provides a consolidated synthesis CH4 N2O consistently derived state-of-the-art bottom-up (BU) top-down (TD) data for European Union UK (EU27 + UK). We integrate recent emission inventory data, ecosystem process-based model results inverse modeling estimates over period...
Abstract. Knowledge of the spatial distribution fluxes greenhouse gases (GHGs) and their temporal variability as well flux attribution to natural anthropogenic processes is essential monitoring progress in mitigating emissions under Paris Agreement inform its global stocktake. This study provides a consolidated synthesis CH4 N2O using bottom-up (BU) top-down (TD) approaches for European Union UK (EU27 + UK) updates earlier syntheses (Petrescu et al., 2020, 2021). The work integrates updated...
Land use inventories are sound measures to provide information on the area occupied by different land or cover types and their changes, although less widespread than traditional mapping; as such, they distinctively well-established tools for generating statistics state dynamics of in European Union. Italy has recently set up a inventory system (IUTI) key instrument accounting removals emissions greenhouse gases (GHG) associated use, change forestry (LULUCF) activities elected under Kyoto...
This study reviews carbon stocks and dynamics in different types of forest land Italy: ordinary managed forests, plantations, old growth trees outside forests. Forest management, combined with global environmental changes, increases the capacity uptake particularly ones subject to short‐rotation forestry systems, potentially have high soil accumulation, especially agricultural lands. Old recently discovered as a sink, cover significant surface area Italy. Moreover, forests may represent...
ABSTRACT Hawkmoths and flowers exhibit striking examples of morphological specialisation, yet how these interactions are structured by different processes within communities still need to be better understood. In this study, we investigated the between hawkmoths in megadiverse, open‐vegetation landscape Brazilian Campos Rupestres. Using a zoocentric approach based on pollen loads found hawkmoth bodies, assessed their at community‐level. Our results revealed modular network, with both...
The Land-Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry sector (LULUCF) role is of critical importance in contributing to the ambitious targets set by European Union (EU) reduce 55% net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 2030, compared 1990 levels, become carbon neutral 2050. EU LULUCF regulation, approved 2023, sets out binding for each individual Member State be achieved totaling 310 MtCO2e removals whole EU. However, it remains poorly understood what extent climate target matches with States' strategies....
Abstract. Quantification of land surface–atmosphere fluxes carbon dioxide (CO2) and their trends uncertainties is essential for monitoring progress the EU27+UK bloc as it strives to meet ambitious targets determined by both international agreements internal regulation. This study provides a consolidated synthesis fossil sources (CO2 fossil) natural (including formally managed ecosystems) sinks over land) using bottom-up (BU) top-down (TD) approaches European Union United Kingdom (EU27+UK),...
Abstract The 2030 European Union (EU) climate and energy policy framework includes for the first time a dedicated instrument concerning greenhouse gas emissions removals from land use, land‐use change forestry (LULUCF). new LULUCF Regulation marks significant expansion of EU acquis , with ramifications other sensitive areas, such as agriculture, renewable energy. has had particularly troubled negotiation history. It already been at centre litigation, is set to be revisited amended by 2021....
Wildfires are the most common disturbances in Mediterranean forest ecosystems that cause significant emissions of greenhouse gases as a result biomass burning. Despite this, there is reasonably high uncertainty regarding actual fraction burnt and related CO2 non-CO2 gas released during fires. The aim this paper to compare existing methodologies adopted National Greenhouse Gas Inventory reports five fire-affected countries southern Europe (Italy, Spain, Greece, Portugal, France) with those...
Abstract Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration is a key function of natural and semi‐natural ecosystems. Restoring this property in terrestrial ecosystems has become central to the EU's climate change mitigation adaptation strategies. However, SOC widely misunderstood concept. The different methodological approaches used investigate compare stock under sustainable agricultural practices play role reinforcing misconceptions about complex process. This commentary paper aimed not only provide...
