Dynamic global vegetation models underestimate net CO2 flux mean and inter-annual variability in dryland ecosystems

Dynamic global vegetation models underestimate net CO2 flux mean and inter-annual variability in dryland ecosystems

Despite their sparse vegetation, dryland regions exert a huge influence over global biogeochemical cycles because they cover more than 40% of the world surface (Schimel 2010 Science 327 418–9). It is thought that drylands dominate the inter-annual variability (IAV) and long-term trend in the global...
