The role of the Earth’s mycelial community and enzyme activity on global atmospheric CO2 and COS budgets

The recent activity of humans has had such a profound impact on the chemistry of the Earth’s atmosphere that ecosystems and societies face a ‘human-induced’ climate crisis. Given the key role of the biosphere in climate change feedbacks, the Paris Agreement emphasised every effort should now be taken to ensure ecosystems are managed to reduce the growth rate of atmospheric CO2 without altering climate. However, Land Surface Models (LSM) still lack consensus on critical processes driving the exchange of CO2 between ecosystems and the atmosphere. Variations in atmospheric carbonyl sulphide (COS) could provide independent constraints on LSM performance at large scales and evidence for the…
