at canopy level GPP is very similar Janssens, Ciais, Luyssaert and Schulze, unpublished
grassland > forest Janssens, Ciais, Luyssaert and Schulze, unpublished
other GHGs • balance the grassland sink • increase cropland losses Janssens, Ciais, Luyssaert and Schulze, unpublished
forest biomass sink not secure Janssens, Ciais, Luyssaert and Schulze, unpublished
GHGs add 10% to GWP
ecosystems compensate 10% of fossil and other fluxes the N2O flux is as large as the forest sink
Conclusions • The GHG balance of EU-25 is zero • The Euopean GHG sink is located in eastern Europe • We cannot study the carbon cycle in isolation. We have to seriously take the N-cycle on board
