An international ensemble of Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs), known as the “Trends and drivers of the regional scale terrestrial sources and sinks of carbon dioxide” (TRENDY) project, quantifies land biophysical exchange processes and biogeochemistry cycles in support of the annual Global Carbon Budget assessments and the REgional Carbon Cycle Assessment and Processes, phase 2 project. DGVMs use a common protocol and set of driving data sets. A set of factorial simulations allows attribution of spatio-temporal changes in land surface processes to three primary global change drivers: changes in atmospheric CO₂, climate change and variability, and Land Use and Land Cover Changes (LULCC). Here, we describe the TRENDY project, benchmark DGVM performance using remote-sensing and other observational data, and present results for the contemporary period. Simulation results show a large global carbon sink in natural vegetation over 2012–2021, attributed to the CO₂ fertilization effect (3.8 ± 0.8 PgC/yr) and climate (−0.58 ± 0.54 PgC/yr). Forests and semi-arid ecosystems contribute approximately equally to the mean and trend in the natural land sink, and semi-arid ecosystems continue to dominate interannual variability. The natural sink is offset by net emissions from LULCC (−1.6 ± 0.5 PgC/yr), with a net land sink of 1.7 ± 0.6 PgC/yr.

Here, we combine surface fluxes from eight land and four ocean models from phase 2 of the Nitrogen/N₂O Model Intercomparison Project with tropospheric transport modeling to simulate aN₂O at eight remote air sampling sites for modern and pre-industrial periods. Models show general agreement on the seasonal phasing of zonal-average N₂O fluxes for most sites, but seasonal peak-to-peak amplitudes differ several-fold across models. The modeled seasonal amplitude of surface aN₂O ranges from 0.25 to 0.80 ppb (interquartile ranges 21%–52% of median) for land, 0.14–0.25 ppb (17%–68%) for ocean, and 0.28–0.77 ppb (23%–52%) for combined flux contributions. The observed seasonal amplitude ranges from 0.34 to 1.08 ppb for these sites. The stratospheric contributions to aN₂O, inferred by the difference between the surface-troposphere model and observations, show 16%–126% larger amplitudes and minima delayed by ∼1 month compared to Northern Hemisphere site observations. Land fluxes and their seasonal amplitude have increased since the pre-industrial era and are projected to grow further under anthropogenic activities.

Diatom biomass was initially relatively high with biogenic silica concentrations up to 2.25 μmol Si L⁻¹. A low initial silicic acid concentration of 0.1–0.3 μM imposed severe Si limitation of silica production and likely limited the diatom growth rate.

Silica dissolution averaged 68% of silica production. The resupply of silicic acid via storm entrainment and silica dissolution supported a cumulative post-bloom silica production that was 32% of that estimated during the main bloom event. Diatoms contributed significantly to new and to primary production after the initial bloom, possibly dominating both. Diatom contribution to organic-carbon export was also significant at 40%–70%.

Here, we evaluate trends in size-fractionated carbon, nitrogen, and silicic acid uptake rates in conjunction with environmental parameters to assess these dynamics. In our study, the decline phase of the bloom continued to be highly productive with net primary production (NPP) ranging from 36.4 to 146.6 mmol C m⁻² d⁻¹ and approximately 54% of primary production being driven by large phytoplankton cells (≥5 μm) that were primarily utilizing nitrate (mean <i>f</i>-ratio of 0.77).

However, it remains an unsolved puzzle why N input stimulates soil CH₄ uptake in some forests while suppressing it in others. Combining previous findings and data from N addition experiments conducted in global forests, we proposed and tested a “stimulating-suppressing-weakened effect” (“three stages”) hypothesis on the changing responses of soil CH₄ flux (<i>R</i>_<i>CH4</i>) to N input. Specifically, we calculated the response factors (<i>f</i>) of <i>R</i>_<i>CH4</i> to N input for N-limited and N-saturated forests across biomes; the phased changes in <i>f</i> values supported our hypothesis. We also estimated the global forest soil CH₄ uptake budget to be approximately 11.2 Tg yr⁻¹. CH₄ uptake hotspots were predominantly located in temperate forests. Furthermore, we quantified that the current level of N deposition reduced global forest soil CH₄ uptake by ∼3%. This suppression effect was more pronounced in temperate forests than in tropical or boreal forests, likely due to differences in N status. The proposed “three stages” hypothesis in this study generalizes the diverse effects of N input on <i>R</i>_<i>CH4</i>, which could help improve experimental design.

We show that the DA is a net source of N to the water column, and that about 30% of the total annual N load released from the DA is mitigated by the sediment through denitrification and capture. The annual net load of the total N from the DA to the reservoir is ca. 0.59 kg per meter along the river, which is on the same order of magnitude as the input load from the density current of the Yangtze River to its tributaries, generally considered to be the primary driver of eutrophication in tributaries.

Despite PyC's persistence in soil, recent work has indicated that it is susceptible to loss processes such as mineralization and leaching, with the significance and magnitude of these largely unknown at the hillslope and watershed scales. We present a review of the work concerning dissolved PyC transport in soil and freshwater. Our analysis found that the primary environmental controls on dissolved PyC (dPyC) transport are the formation conditions and quality of the PyC itself, with longer and higher temperature charring conditions leading to less transport of dPyC. While correlations between dPyC and dissolved organic carbon in rivers and other pools are frequently reported, the slope of these correlations was pool-dependent (i.e., soil-water, precipitation, lakes, streams, rivers), suggesting site-specific environmental controls. However, the lack of consistency in analytical techniques and sample preparation remains a major challenge to quantifying environmental controls on dPyC fluxes. We propose that future research should focus on the following: (a) consistency in methodological approaches, (b) more quantitative measures of dPyC in pools and fluxes from soils to streams, (c) turnover times of dPyC in soils and aquatic systems, and (d) improved understanding of how mechanisms controlling the fate of dPyC in dynamic post-fire landscapes interact.

Using the Community Earth System Model version 2 large ensemble simulations, we find that the C:P ratios in DOM are projected to increase by up to two-fold in oligotrophic gyres by 2100. Increased upper ocean stratification reduces surface phosphate availability, thereby elevating phytoplankton C:P ratios and enhancing phytoplankton utilization of DOP, both acting to deprive DOM of P. Moreover, ocean stratification has a direct effect on exporting less DOC to the subsurface while accumulating more DOC at the sea surface. As a result of the strong sensitivity to ocean surface warming, the anthropogenically driven trends in upper ocean DOM concentration and its C:P ratios are estimated to emerge earlier from the simulated natural variability than upper ocean phosphate concentrations and net primary production—two key biogeochemical variables that are frequently monitored. This study suggests that changes in the C:P ratios of DOM could serve as a sensitive fingerprint of anthropogenic ocean warming, potentially exerting broad impacts on marine microbes.
