|Description=Several economic developments and policy interventions are related to the dynamics of the terrestrial carbon budget. The terrestrial and marine carbon budgets determine the overall reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and aerosols needed to limit CO<sub>2</sub> build-up in the atmosphere. If the current terrestrial sink diminishes or becomes a carbon source, additional emission reductions will be required. Furthermore, protecting natural ecosystems or using alternative forest management options may contribute to storing and retaining more carbon in the biosphere (see also [[Strengers et al., 2008]]; [[Van Minnen et al., 2008]]). These options can be evaluated with the linked IMAGE-LPJmL model for baseline scenarios and policy interventions. | |Description=Several economic developments and policy interventions are related to the dynamics of the terrestrial carbon budget.
