"Cascading transition risks towards degraded ecosystems in the #Amazon biome[:] The large majority of the simulated transitions is caused by spatial knock-on effects from increasing drought intensities, leading to long-ranging and self-propelling cascades on scales of hundreds to thousands of kilometres."

  7. Wood harvesting and forest management are depleting carbon storage. Old-growth forests in Sweden store ~72% more carbon than the industrial tree plantations that are rapidly replacing them, with soil accounting for most of the difference.

    The top meter of soils in lowland primary forests contained roughly 64% of total C on average.

  12. #Freshwater #lakes,like #Flughafensee #Berlin, play a complex #role in #globalwarming. Their #sediments are important #carbonsinks. However, they also release #CO2/#methane through microorganism activities. Furthermore, #lakeswarmup faster than surrounding air. L. Huang et al.(2024) address this and predict #shifts in #aquaticspecies #distributions and rearrangements of #freshwaterhabitats.

    How an underground fungal map of the world’s oldest, slowest-growing #rainforest #trees can boost the resilience of Earth’s long-term #carbonSinks
    Scientists demonstrate that a single 2,400-year-old tree protects hundreds, if not thousands, of underground fungal species.
