Model simulations
The models were forced over the 1901-2009 period with changing
CO2, climate (CRU/NCEP) and land use:
S1: CO2 only
S2: CO2 and climate
S3 (optional): CO2, climate and land use

Stippled areas > 90% of the models agree in the sign of the change
Summary
 Use set-up to produce global/regional annual C-budgets
 Drought may be an important driver of the present-day
trends in the land carbon cycle
 Climate Models Project Summer Drought in Continental
Regions
 Drought may be an important driver of the future trends
in the land carbon cycle
 Critical to understand Ecosystem Response to Drought
for future Earth System feedbacks
