Quantifying carbon‐nitrogen feedbacks in the Community Land Model (CLM4)
Abstract
Recent studies indicate that nitrogen biogeochemistry affects the carbon cycle feedback in climate simulations. We use the Community Land Model version 4 (CLM4) with carbon‐only and carbon‐nitrogen biogeochemistry to assess the influence of nitrogen on the land carbon budget for 1973–2004. Carbon‐only simulations show that the carbon gain from increasing atmospheric CO 2 (the concentration‐carbon feedback) is four times greater than the warming‐induced carbon loss (the climate‐carbon feedback) over the period 1973–2004. Nitrogen reduces both feedbacks compared with carbon‐only biogeochemistry. The decrease in the concentration‐carbon feedback is three times greater than the effect on the climate‐carbon feedback. Thus, the influence of nitrogen on the CLM4 concentration‐carbon feedback is of greater importance for near‐term climate change simulations than its effect on the climate‐carbon feedback. Furthermore, the land use carbon flux greatly exceeds these carbon‐nitrogen biogeochemical feedbacks.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
