Description

Grasslands cover significant areas in nontropical regions, perform essential biogeochemical functions and represent important natural and agricultural resource. Nevertheless, in contrast to forests and agroecosystems, no flux measurement-based global summary of their CO2 exchange, sequestration potential, and role in mitigation of the greenhouse effect were available.
