Analysis of Carbon Flux in Terrestrial Ecosystems from GOSAT Data in China

摘要

In recent years, the evaluation of carbon sources and carbon sinks has become one of the major research topics. The temporal and spatial distribution of carbon flux and some factors that affect carbon flux were analyzed in this paper based on the Net Ecosystem Exchange (NEE) data, which were provided by Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT) project and FLUXNET project. Then, we found that carbon flux had obvious seasonal variation. It was carbon sink in summer and carbon source in winter. The total amount of carbon flux in July or August was about -1.377 ~ -1.882 gcm-2day-1, and 0.64 gcm-2day-1 in November. The fluctuation of carbon flux in coastal area was stronger than that in inland. Forest areas had stronger carbon storage capacity than that in other vegetation areas, and the flux in forest areas had the largest change. The vegetation coverage was larger, and the carbon storage capacity was stronger.
