Vulnerability of carbon pools in the 21st Century
Grubber et al. 2004 (from Field and Raupach 2004, SCOPE-GCP rapid assessment)
1 proposal submitted, 2 in preparation
Preliminary analyses indicate a risk over the coming century of up to 200 ppm of atmospheric CO2
Vulnerability of the Carbon-Climate System
Grubber et al. 2004 (from Field and Raupach 2004, SCOPE-GCP rapid assessment)
• Compile a catalogue of vulnerable carbon pools.• Quantify the extent of these pools and their carbon content.• Assess the processes affecting the balance and release of carbon.• Analyze the impacts of these C releases on atmospheric [CO2] and climate change.

International Ocean Carbon Coordination Project
• 13-15 January 2003, Paris, FranceInternational Workshop on Ocean Carbon Research and Observation Activities. Contact: Maria Hood, Chris Sabine
• 10-14 March 2003, Hazaki Town,Ibaraki, Japan International pCO2 sensor intercomparison experiment. Contact: Y.Nojiri• 14-17 January 2004, Tsukuba, Japan
Workshop on Ocean Surface pCO2, Data Integration and Database Development. Contact:Y.Nojiri
Repeated SectionsVolunteer Observing Ships
• Synthesize large-scale ocean carbon observation activities.• Promote acceptance of standardized measurement techniques• Improved accessibility to international carbon data sets
Other Activities
• Earth System Modelling (climate-carbon-socio/economic system).– Developing new data assimilation approaches for the global carbon cycle
(Australia led w/ ESA leverage funding for the next 3 years).– Developing new global socio-economic measurements and surrogates for
modelling purposes.
• Regional Carbon budgets: comparative study on regional approaches and developing a bottom-up global budget.
• Global/regional carbon sources and sinks.Transport Trace Gas Model Intercomparsion (TransCom phase 4).
