Caption: Cumulative Terrestrial carbon flux using the IMAGE-LPJmL model for multiple baseline (A2 and B2) and mitigation/policy (RCP2.6) scenarios. Black lines depict the cases where the terrestrial biosphere remains a sink, the red lines show cases where it shifts and becomes a carbon source. Positive numbers depict a cumulative terrestrial carbon sink, negative numbers a cumulative terrestrial source (net carbon release exceeds the amount of carbon sequestered before). Although the terrestrial biosphere, traditionally, has always been a carbon sink, it may turn into a carbon source in the future (see Müller et al., 2013).
