capacity carbon central current cycle earth flows found global growing half predicted rates remove roughly scientists understand
In the Central Amazon, where we found the slowest growing trees, the rates of carbon uptake are roughly half what is predicted by current global carbon cycle models. As a result, those modelsùwhich are used by scientists to understand how carbon flows through the Earth systemùmay be overestimating the forests' capacity to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
