Impact of the Ukrainian crisis on the global food security

Jean Cyrus de Gourcuff, David Makowski, Philippe Ciais +1

Using global wheat trade data and a network model for shock propagation, we study the impact of the Ukrainian crisis on food security. Depending on the level of reduction in Ukrain…

Carbon loss from forest degradation exceeds that from deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon

Yuanwei Qin, Xiangming Xiao, Jean-Pierre Wigneron +11

Spatial-temporal dynamics of aboveground biomass (AGB) and forest area affect the carbon cycle, climate, and biodiversity in the Brazilian Amazon. Here we investigate inter-annual…

Global fossil carbon emissions rebound near pre-COVID-19 levels

RB Jackson, P Friedlingstein, C Le Quere +8

Global fossil CO2 emissions in 2020 decreased 5.4%, from 36.7 Gt CO2 in 2019 to 34.8 Gt CO2 in 2020, an unprecedented decline of ~1.9 Gt CO2. We project that global fossil CO2 emis…

De-carbonization of global energy use during the COVID-19 pandemic

Zhu Liu, Biqing Zhu, Philippe Ciais +15

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted human activities, leading to unprecedented decreases in both global energy demand and GHG emissions. Yet a little known that there is also a low…

Transportation CO emissions stayed high despite recurrent COVID outbreaks

Yilong Wang, Zhu Deng, Philippe Ciais +5

After steep drops and then rebounds in transportation-related CO emissions over the first half of 2020, a second wave of COVID-19 this fall has caused further -- but less subst…

Regional Impacts of COVID-19 on Carbon Dioxide Detected Worldwide from Space

Brad Weir, David Crisp, Christopher W O'Dell +11

Activity reductions in early 2020 due to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic led to unprecedented decreases in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Despite their record size, the resu…

Satellite-based estimates of decline and rebound in China's CO emissions during COVID-19 pandemic

Bo Zheng, Guannan Geng, Philippe Ciais +13

Changes in CO emissions during the COVID-19 pandemic have been estimated from indicators on activities like transportation and electricity generation. Here, we instead use sate…

Cost-effective implementation of the Paris Agreement using flexible greenhouse gas metrics

Katsumasa Tanaka, Olivier Boucher, Philippe Ciais +2

Greenhouse gas (GHG) metrics, that is, conversion factors to evaluate the emissions of non-CO2 climate forcers on a common scale with CO2, serve crucial functions upon the implemen…
