Carbon cycle and ecosystems interact with climate throughout Earth's history, from the rise of oxygen to ice ages to future climate change. Sample questions examined by AOSC faculty include:
- Variability of the carbon sources and sinks (Zeng, Murtugudde, Carton, Chepurin)
- Physical Biosphere-climate interaction (Zeng, Murtugudde)
- Predicting ecosystem and carbon cycle from days to seasons (Zeng, Murtugudde, Busalacchi, Kalnay)
- Monitoring atmospheric CO2 from space (Salawitch)
- Carbon cycle-climate interaction from glacial-interglacial cycles to the future (Zeng)
- Carbon data assimilation with ensemble Kalman filter (Kalnay, Zeng)
- Carbon sequestration, alternative energy and climate change policy (Zeng, Kirk-Davidoff)
