Terrestrial photosynthesis, or gross primary production (GPP), is the largest carbon flux in
the biosphere, but its global magnitude and spatiotemporal dynamics remain uncertain. The …

For the past decade, observations of carbonyl sulfide (OCS or COS) have been investigated
as a proxy for carbon uptake by plants. OCS is destroyed by enzymes that interact with CO 2 …

Stomatal conductance influences both photosynthesis and transpiration, thereby coupling
the carbon and water cycles and affecting surface–atmosphere energy exchange. The …

Carbonyl sulfide (COS) has the potential to be used as a climate diagnostic due to its close
coupling to the biospheric uptake of CO 2 and its role in the formation of stratospheric …

Land surface modellers need measurable proxies to constrain the quantity of carbon dioxide
(CO 2) assimilated by continental plants through photosynthesis, known as gross primary …

Carbonyl sulfide (COS), a trace gas showing striking similarity to CO 2 in terms of
biochemical diffusion pathway into leaves, has been recognized as a promising indicator of …

Carbonyl sulfide (COS) is an atmospheric trace gas of interest for C cycle research because
COS uptake by continental vegetation is strongly related to terrestrial gross primary …

Carbonyl sulfide (COS) fluxes simulated by vegetation and soil component models, both
implemented in the ORCHIDEE land surface model, were evaluated against field …

The triple oxygen isotope signature Δ17O in atmospheric CO2, also known as its “17O
excess,” has been proposed as a tracer for gross primary production (the gross uptake of …

Accurately modeling gross primary productivity (GPP) is of great importance for diagnosing
terrestrial carbon–climate feedbacks. Process-based terrestrial ecosystem models are often …
