One strategy to reduce the scale of future climate change is to enhance the storage of carbon in vegetation and soils. Evidence suggests carbon stored in vegetation and soils is itself vulnerable to climate change, placing this stored carbon at risk; this project will assess this risk to advise on the reliability of using terrestrial systems as carbon sinks.

减少未来气候变化规模的一个战略是加强植被和土壤中碳的储存。有证据表明，储存在植被和土壤中的碳本身很容易受到气候变化的影响，这将使储存的碳面临风险；该项目将评估这种风险，以就将陆地系统用作碳汇的可靠性提供建议。
