Seasonal CO2 rectifier effect and large‐scale extratropical atmospheric transport

In atmospheric transport models, the covariation of the atmospheric transport and annually neutral biospheric CO2 flux is usually evident as the annual zonal mean surface CO2 concentration gradient. Using the NIES transport model and CO2 flux from the Biome‐BGC model, the covariations of different transport mechanisms and CO2 flux were examined and quantified. Including the covariation of the total transport (processes included in the NIES …
