🌍🌱 How Efficient Are Plants at Using Carbon? 🌱🌍
A major new study in @natecoevo.nature.com reveals how well plants across the globe convert CO₂ into biomass—a key to understanding Earth’s carbon balance.

We studied the changes in global ecosystem quantum yield (max light use efficiency) using long-term eddy covariance data. Spolier alert - no clear trend in quantum yield! Likely CO2 effect offset by VPD. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
The spatiotemporal variations in ecosystem photosynthetic quantum yield and their drivers
The quantum yield (α) of photosynthesis represents the maximum light use efficiency (LUE) as indicated by the initial slope of photosynthetic light re…

Many places on earth are greening, why not Southeast Asia? An interesting study led by Ruiying suggested the positive impact from elevated CO2 on greenness was almost offset by cropland (excl. oil palm) expansion, using a ML approach! Going to present it at #AGU24! bg.copernicus.org/articles/21/...
Cropland expansion drives vegetation greenness decline in Southeast Asia
Abstract. Land-use and land-cover change (LUCC) is a key factor in determining regional vegetation greenness, impacting terrestrial carbon, water, and energy budgets. As a global LUCC hot spot, Southe...
