Fig. 3: Removal efficiency and uptake per unit of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) application.
From: No compromise in efficiency from the co-application of a marine and a terrestrial CDR method

The left column panels show the timeseries of intermodel average: (top) removal efficiency (see Methods, Table 1), (middle) land carbon uptake (GtCO2) per 100 Mha of planted forest, and (bottom) ocean carbon uptake (GtCO2) per Pmol of alkalinity added to the ocean surface. In all cases, uptake and removal refer to changes in carbon stocks compared to REF. The shading around the mean shows the minimum-maximum range across both models and all ensemble members. To aid interpretation, in the middle and right column panels the barplots show snapshots for 2060 and 2099. The bar height corresponds to the intermodel average, and the gray vertical lines show the minimum-maximum range across both models and all ensemble members, while the individual data points are also plotted.
