FIGURE 5.
Illustration of the relative size of the N‐induced forest biomass C sink estimated by this study and the gross and net forest C sinks, per forest biome (all values are in Tg C yr−1). Estimates for gross C sink (total C removal in aboveground and belowground biomass) and net C sink (gross C sink minus C emissions due to deforestation, forestry, urbanization and wildfires) were obtained from high‐resolution maps of the global gross and net forest C sink for the years 2001–2020 estimated by combining ground‐ and earth observation data (Harris et al., 2021)
