How do ecosystems respond to climate change, and how can ecosystems affect climate? This course describes, quantitatively and qualitatively, the different feedback mechanisms between the land surface and climate at both local and global scales. We will also discuss how these processes can be measured across earth's diverse ecosystems, and how they are represented in earth system models used to study climate change (and models used to track the feasibility of natural climate solutions). Basic familiarity with programming is helpful.
