概括

大气中二氧化碳 (CO2) 的增加使新西兰牧场的生产率提高了10%,而模型预测了更高的收益. 土壤有机碳 (SOC) 的变化很小,这表明CO2可以在没有显著的碳损失的情况下提高农业产量.

The Carbon Cycle

Carbon is the basis of all organic matter on Earth, and is recycled through the ecosystem in two primary processes: one in which carbon is exchanged among living organisms, and one in which carbon is cycled over long periods of time through fossilized organic remains, weathering of rocks, and volcanic activity. Human activities, including increased agricultural practices and the burning of fossil fuels, has greatly affected the balance of the natural carbon cycle.
