Integrating CO2 Fertilization Evidence Streams and Theory: Global Terrestrial Carbon Sink

The meeting will bring together world experts on multiple evidence streams and theory to assess the CO2 fertilization effect on the terrestrial carbon sink. The primary goal of the meeting is to integrate the evidence streams and to resolve conflicts in the interpretation of the evidence streams into a quantitative synthesis of the state of knowledge. The synthesis will take the form of a high-quality review article. A secondary goal is to identify research opportunities and foster collaborations to take advantage of these opportunities.
