Abstract:

Although decisive for understanding their behavior under transient climate change, little is known about the frequency response of carbon pools to low-frequency climate variations. Using the forest succession model FORLAND, we systematically investigate the response of simulated carbon pools to variations in the amplitude and frequency of five key climatic parameters. The simulated response to 20th century climatic data is discussed in view of the found frequency response curves.
