  • How will Earth's vegetation cover respond to climate change, and how does this compare with changes associated with human land use? Modelling studies reveal how little we still know, and act as a clarion call for further work.

  • Atmospheric aerosol particles can significantly influence the climate system. Analyses of observations and observation-based modelling data reveal that biogenic aerosol emissions soar in response to warming, exerting a cooling effect in a negative feedback loop.

  • Satellite records combined with global ecosystem models show a persistent and widespread greening over 25–50% of the global vegetated area; less than 4% of the globe is browning. CO2 fertilization explains 70% of the observed greening trend.

  • Bottom-up and top-down approaches are used to quantify global nitrous oxide sources and sinks resulting from both natural and anthropogenic sources, revealing a 30% increase in global human-induced emissions between 1980 and 2016.

  • The Russia–Ukraine war has impacted food access globally, but the exact drivers behind it and the broader consequences for human and environmental health are unclear. Through scenario analysis, this study assesses the relative importance of higher agricultural input prices and export disruption to food access, and estimates undernourishment and cropland expansion.

  • Changes in the leaf area index alter the distribution of heat and moisture. The change in energy partitioning related to leaf area, increasing latent and decreasing sensible fluxes over the observational period 1982–2016, is moderated by plant functional type and background climate.

  • A study of how temperature and water availability fluctuations affect the carbon balance of land ecosystems reveals different controls on local and global scales, implying that spatial climate covariation drives the global carbon cycle response.

  • The global net land sink is relatively well constrained. However, the responsible drivers and above/below-ground partitioning are highly uncertain. Model issues regarding turnover of individual plant and soil components are responsible.

  • Land conservation remains one of the biggest tools to try to maintain biodiversity targets. This study examines how strict conservation goals of 30% and 50% of global land area could impact human health and food security.

  • Future agricultural productivity is threatened by high temperatures. Here, using 9 crop models, Schaubergeret al. find that yield losses due to temperatures >30 °C are captured by current models where yield losses by mild heat stress occur mainly due to water stress and can be buffered by irrigation.

  • A satellite-based estimate of forest regrowth carbon flux across the Northern Hemisphere suggests forest disturbance and regrowth are transient but important aspects of the carbon sink that may explain underestimates from dynamic global vegetation models

  • Advanced photovoltaic technologies require less land to meet energy demand by 2085 than conventional technologies and effectively mitigate climate change impacts, according to an analysis that combines data from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, climate scenarios, and energy demand data.

  • The Paris Agreement requires substantial changes in the land system. However, national implementation plans are vague, largely insufficient and unlikely to be fully achieved. Realistic policies require proper consideration of land-system lags.

  • Climate change mitigation and adaptation are human-mediated processes but global modelling tools currently take no account of human responses to environmental change. In this Perspective the authors propose the agent functional type approach to advance the representation of these processes.

  • The terrestrial biosphere is a key regulator of atmospheric chemistry and climate. Total positive radiative forcing resulting from biogeochemical feedbacks between the terrestrial biosphere and atmosphere could be equally as important as that resulting from physical feedbacks.

  • The Brazilian Amazon was a net carbon source during recent climate extremes and the south-eastern Amazon was a net land carbon source between 2010 and 2020 due to increasing human-induced disturbance and drought, suggest bottom-up and top-down estimates of land carbon fluxes.

  • Ecosystem productivity losses associated with hydroclimatic extremes increased in northern mid-latitudes but decreased in pantropic regions between 1982 and 2016, according to an analysis of gross primary production data from observations and models.
