Understanding greenhouse gases to support climate action

by Dr Philippe Ciais & Dr Werner L. Kutsch
Topics
CO₂ fluxes, CO₂ concentrations, maps, fossil fuel emissions
Key messages
The maps presented in this article illustrate the three major CO₂ fluxes for Europe and adjacent ocean areas in 2021:

(A) Biogenic fluxes of land ecosystems,
(B) Ocean fluxes,
(C) Human emissions of fossil fuels.

Are carbon sinks at risk?

Volume 1, 2022

This inaugural edition of FLUXES explores how long-term observation data can answer questions such as:

Has there been an acceleration of the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?’
Has extreme weather in Europe influenced the carbon cycle of ecosystems and, consequently, changed their ability to store carbon?’
