Abstract

Greenhouse gas (GHG)‐induced climate change is among the most pressing sustainability challenges facing humanity today, posing serious risks for ecosystem health. Methane (CH 4 ) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O) are the two most important GHGs after carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), but their regional and global budgets are not well known. In this study, we applied a process‐based coupled biogeochemical model to concurrently estimate the magnitude and spatial and temporal patterns of CH 4 and N 2 O fluxes as driven by multiple environmental changes, including climate variability, rising atmospheric CO 2 , increasing nitrogen deposition, tropospheric ozone pollution, land use change, and nitrogen fertilizer use. The estimated CH 4 and N 2 O emissions from global land ecosystems during 1981–2010 were 144.39 ± 12.90 Tg C/yr (mean ± 2 SE; 1 Tg = 1012 g) and 12.52 ± 0.74 Tg N/yr, respectively. Our simulations indicated a significant ( P < 0.01) annually increasing trend for CH 4 (0.43 ± 0.06 Tg C/yr) and N 2 O (0.14 ± 0.02 Tg N/yr) in the study period. CH 4 and N 2 O emissions increased significantly in most climatic zones and continents, especially in the tropical regions and Asia. The most rapid increase in CH 4 emission was found in natural wetlands and rice fields due to increased rice cultivation area and climate warming. N 2 O emission increased substantially in all the biome types and the largest increase occurred in upland crops due to increasing air temperature and nitrogen fertilizer use. Clearly, the three major GHGs (CH 4 , N 2 O, and CO 2 ) should be simultaneously considered when evaluating if a policy is effective to mitigate climate change.

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.
