Historical carbon dioxide emissions caused by land-use changes are possibly larger than assumed

The net carbon flux on land comprises emissions from land-use change and uptake by vegetation. An evaluation of vegetation models suggests that emissions from land-use change, and thus the terrestrial sink, ma...
