Net exchanges of CO2, CH4, and N2O between China's terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere and their contributions to global climate warming

The definitive version was published in Journal of Geophysical Research 116 (2011): G02011, doi:10.1029/2010JG001393.China's terrestrial ecosystems have been recognized as an atmospheric CO2 sink; however, it is uncertain whether this sink can alleviate global warming given the fluxes of CH4 and N2O. In this study, we used a process-based ecosystem model driven by multiple environmental factors to examine the net warming potential resulting from net exchanges of CO2, CH4, and N2O between China's terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere during 1961–2005. In the past 45 years, China's terrestrial ecosystems were found to sequestrate CO2 at a rate of 179.3 Tg C yr−1 with a 95% confidence range of (62.0 Tg C yr−1, 264.9 Tg C yr−1) while emitting CH4 and N2O at rates of 8.3 Tg C yr−1 with a 95% confidence range of (3.3 Tg C yr−1, 12.4 Tg C yr−1) and 0.6 Tg N yr−1 with a 95% confidence range of (0.2 Tg N yr−1, 1.1 Tg N yr−1), respectively. When translated into global warming potential, it is highly possible that China's terrestrial ecosystems mitigated global climate warming at a rate of 96.9 Tg CO2eq yr−1 (1 Tg = 1012 g), substantially varying from a source of 766.8 Tg CO2eq yr−1 in 1997 to a sink of 705.2 Tg CO2eq yr−1 in 2002. The southeast and northeast of China slightly contributed to global climate warming; while the northwest, north, and southwest of China imposed cooling effects on the climate system. Paddy land, followed by natural wetland and dry cropland, was the largest contributor to national warming potential; forest, followed by woodland and grassland, played the most significant role in alleviating climate warming. Our simulated results indicate that CH4 and N2O emissions offset approximately 84.8% of terrestrial CO2 sink in China during 1961–2005. This study suggests that the relieving effects of China's terrestrial ecosystems on climate warming through sequestering CO2 might be gradually offset by increasing N2O emission, in combination with CH4 emission.This study has been supported by NASA LCLUC Program (NNX08AL73G_S01) , NASA IDS Program (NNG04GM39C), and China’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) 973 Program (2002CB412500)

Evolution of dimerized phase in a one-dimensional correlated electron system

The one-dimensional half-filled correlated electron system with on-site (U), nearest-neighbor (V) and pair hopping (Y) repulsions is studied analytically at weak coupling, combined the Abelian bosonization with renormalization group methods. The corresponding ground-state phase diagram consists of three insulating phases, a charge-density-wave (CDW) phase for U − 2V< − 2Y, a spin-density-wave (SDW) phase for U − 2V> 2Y, and a bond-charge-density-wave (BOW) phase for | U − 2V | < 2Y. The pair hopping, which breaks an accident symmetry and splits the frustrating line U − 2V = 0, provides a possibility for the dimerized BOW phase between the CDW and SDW phases. In the phenomenological parameter regime, the superconducting (SC) and bond-spin-density-wave (BSDW) phases are briefly discussed

Phase diagram of a generalized Penson–Kolb–Hubbard chain with the occupation-dependent hopping

At half filling, we study analytically a one-dimensional correlated electronic system modeled by an extended Penson–Kolb–Hubbard (PKH) chain with the occupation-dependent hopping. The modification of the electron hopping amplitude is exhibited to induce the additional correlated-hopping interactions. At weak coupling, we use the field theory to obtain ground-state phase diagram, including the SDW, BCDW, BSDW, SS and TS phases for U>0. The induced three-body attractive interaction accounts for the superconductivity absent in the usual PKH model

Ground-state instabilities in a Hubbard-type chain with particular correlated hopping at non-half-filling

At non-half-filling, a one-dimensional interacting electronic model (t–U–R) is studied analytically. The particular correlated hopping keeps particle–hole symmetry of the Hubbard model. Physically, the model involved is equivalent to an extended Hubbard chain incorporating a two-body (X) and a three-body (X˜) site-bond interactions with X˜=2X. The analysis of weak-coupling theory leads to the ground-state phase diagram, which consists of three types of metallic phases, characterized by the charge- (CDW) and spin-density-wave (SDW) and singlet-superconductivity (SS) instabilities

Superconductivity in the extended Hubbard chain with three-electron density interaction

At weak coupling and at half filling, we analytically study effects of an intersite three-electron density interaction (P) of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model in addition to the usual two-electron density interactions (U,V). By the bosonization and renormalization group approaches, we obtain the ground-state phase diagram of the model. In particular, we find that even in the presence of repulsive U and V, the attractive P may give rise to the superconducting phases for 2V≤min{2|P|;4|P|−U}
