Dahlman Environmental Sciences Division U.S. Department of Energy Washington, D.C. The potential for humans to alter Earth‘s atmosphere has been recognized since the end of the 19th century when Arrhenius estimated that a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide could alter the atmospheric radiation balance and raise average global temperature. Today, atmospheric CO concentrations play an important part in the 2 climate-change debate. Sources and sinks of CO associated with land use can be 2 significant determinants of the rate and magnitude of atmospheric CO change. 2 Combustion of fossil fuels and the deforestation associated with land-use change both contribute CO to the atmosphere; in contrast, biological processes on land create 2 potential sinks for the excess CO . Thus, land-use change and associated biological 2 processes become important elements in assessments of future atmospheric CO 2 increase; land-cover properties also affect the Earth‘s albedo, which is a climate feedback. | 出版日期 | Book 1994 | 关键词 | CO2 Concentration; Deforestation; Land Use Change; atmosphere; carbon dioxide; forest; tropical forests; ve | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4613-8363-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-8365-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4613-8363-5Series ISSN 0070-8356 Series E-ISSN 2196-971X | issn_series | 0070-8356 | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York, Inc. 1994 |
