Carbon and nitrogen cycle dynamics in the O‐CN land surface model: 2. Role of the nitrogen cycle in the historical terrestrial carbon balance

Global‐scale results of the new O‐CN terrestrial biosphere model coupling the carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles show that the model produces realistic estimates of present‐day C and N stocks and fluxes, despite some regional biases. N availability strongly affects high‐latitude foliage area and fol... View More
