About the Project

Climate simulations show that vegetation is our friend – soaking up more and more carbon dioxide as human emissions rise. But such simulations do not do a good job of representing some of the effects of extreme weather. Recent observations are showing that extreme flood and droughts can damage the carbon sink. Your work will be the first effort to incorporate such extremes into future projections of carbon and climate.
