Global Terrestrial Ecosystems Research, News & Events A new model developed by IIASA’s Oskar Franklin and partners in MICDIF demonstrates how microbes, such as bacteria, adjust their composition to maximize their growth, which may influence large scale nutrient cycling in ecosystems. Michael Obersteiner participated in multiple Side Events at COP16 in Mexico. In one such event, IIASA and the Global Energy Assessment described the multiple co-benefits of integrating climate and energy policies more The need for policy-oriented solutions on uncertainty related to greenhouse gas emission inventories is addressed in a special issue of Climatic Change, lead-edited by Matthias Jonas Research co-authored by Junguo Liu and Michael Obersteiner published in PNAS, indicates that globally, two-fifths of nitrogen used in agriculture is lost to ecosystems Michael Obersteiner in Nature News An article in Science co-authored by Petr Havlik and Michael Obersteiner, explains that accounting rules in the Kyoto Protocol treat all bioenergy as carbon neutral, regardless of the biomass source, which may cause large differences in net emissions |
