Abstract

Land-use change (LUC) is a major source of global anthropogenic carbon emissions that contribute to climate change. However, current estimates of LUC-induced emissions vary widely with differences in data and models, making it challenging to identify and manage emissions hotspots by location and LUC activity. Here, we estimated spatially explicit carbon fluxes associated with global major gross land-use transitions based on a new bookkeeping model (i.e., LUCE). Between 1961 and 2020, LUC induced 215 and 142 Pg C of global carbon emissions and removals, respectively, resulting in average net emissions (ELUC) of 1.21 Pg C year−1. Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa dominated global ELUC with 69% of 60-year cumulative emissions, or about 86% between 2001 and 2020. Forest-related LUC activities (e.g., deforestation, reforestation) contributed largely to both regional and global carbon fluxes. Our findings shed new light on identifying LUC-induced emissions hotspots and managing land for climate mitigation and conservation.

过去六十年(1961-2020 年)土地利用变化产生的全球空间显性碳排放
土地利用变化(LUC)是导致气候变化的全球人为碳排放的主要来源。然而,由于数据和模型的差异,目前对土地利用变化引起的排放的估计差别很大,这使得按地点和土地利用变化活动来识别和管理排放热点具有挑战性。在此,我们基于一个新的簿记模型(即 LUCE)估算了与全球主要土地利用总转变相关的空间明确碳通量。从 1961 年到 2020 年,土地利用变化引起的全球碳排放量和碳清除量分别为 215 和 142 Pg C,平均净排放量(ELUC)为每年 1.21 Pg C。拉丁美洲、东南亚和撒哈拉以南非洲在全球碳排放和碳清除中占主导地位,占 60 年累计排放量的 69%,或 2001 至 2020 年间的约 86%。与森林相关的土地利用变化活动(如毁林、重新造林)在很大程度上造成了地区和全球的碳通量。我们的研究结果为识别土地利用变化引起的排放热点以及管理土地以减缓和保护气候提供了新的思路。
