Emerging negative impact of warming on summer carbon uptake in northern ecosystems, Published online: 19 December 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-07813-7

The impacts of climate change on summer carbon cycling in the northern hemisphere remain poorly resolved. Here the authors use atmospheric CO2 records from Point Barrow (Alaska) to show that summer CO2 drawdown is significantly negatively correlated with terrestrial temperature north of 50°N between 1979–2012.
