How land use change increases China’s carbon sequestration potential

Comparison of China’s Land Use Change Carbon Budget (LULUCF) based on different data sources. Positive values ​​indicate carbon sources and negative values ​​indicate carbon sinks. a. LULUCF carbon flux from 1980 to 2100. b. Multi-year averaged LULUCF carbon fluxes from 1994 to 2018. c. Estimation of China’s forest area based on various data sources.
