About this ebook
While a number of gases are implicated in global warming, carbon dioxide is the mimportant contributor, and in one sense the entire phenomena can be seen as a human-induced perturbation of the carbon cycle. The Global Carbon Cycle offers a scientific assessmof the state of currknowledge of the carbon cycle by the world's leading scientists sponsored by SCOPE and the Global Carbon Project, and other international partners. It gives an introductory over-view of the carbon cycle, with multidisciplinary contributions covering biological, physical, and social science aspects. Included are 29 chapters covering topics including: an assessmof carbon-climate-human interactions; a portfolio of carbon managemoptions; spatial and temporal distribution of sources and sinks of carbon dioxide; socio-economic driving forces of emissions scenarios.
Throughout, contributors emphasize that all parts of the carbon cycle are interrelated, and only by developing a framework that considers the full set of feedbacks will we be able to achieve a thorough understanding and develop effective managemstrategies.
The Global Carbon Cycle edited by Christopher B. Field and Michael R. Raupach is part of the Rapid AssessmPublication series produced by the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environm(SCOPE), in an effort to quickly disseminate the collective knowledge of the world's leading experts on topics of pressing environmental concern.
