Despite 20 years of intensive effort to understand the global carbon cycle, the budget for carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is unbalanced. To explain why atmospheric CO2 is not increasing as rapidly as it should be, various workers have suggested that land vegetation acts as a sink for carbon dioxid

A major task of our time is to ensure adequate food supplies for the world's current population (now nearing 7 billion) in a sustainable way while protecting the vital functions and biological diversity of the global environment. The task of providing for a growing population is likely to be even mo
In order to clarify the importance of seasonality, an analysis was made of changes in the distribution of Holdridge (1947) life zones with biotemperature incremented by monthly average temperature changes simulated for a doubling of atmospheric CO2 concentration (Manabe and Stouffer, 1980). As Rownt
As global greenhouse warming continues to intensify, it is likely that demands to employ technologies of climate engineering will become increasingly insistent. This paper addresses the possibility of 'canceling' the radiative effects of the increasing greenhouse gases through solar reflectors. Two
