The equilibrium terrestrial biosphere model BIOME3 simulates vegetation distribution and biogeochemistry, and couples vegetation distribution directly to bioge chemistry, and successfully reproduces the broad-scale patterns in potential natural vegetation distribution.

979 Citations1990J. Shukla, Carlos A. Nobre +1 more
A coupled numerical model of the global atmosphere and biosphere has been used to assess the effects of Amazon deforestation on the regional and global climate; there was a significant increase in surface temperature and a decrease in evapotranspiration and precipitation over Amazonia.

The model results indicate strong synergistic effects of changes in vegetation cover, ocean temperature, and sea ice at boreal latitudes, but in the subtropics, the atmosphere-vegetation feedback is most important.

The application of the procedure to the 6000 years data set (pollen and plant macrofossil analyses) shows systematic differences from the present that are consistent with the numerous previous regional and continental interpretations, while providing a more extensive and more objective basis for such interpretations.

Results from a process-based vegetation model show how montane vegetation in East Africa shifts with changes in both carbon dioxide concentration and climate, implying that estimates of the last glacial maximum tropical cooling based on tree- line shifts must be revised.
