Caption: Cumulative terrestrial carbon flux using the IMAGE-LPJmL model for multiple baselines. Blue lines depict the cases where the total terrestrial biosphere remains a sink, and the green lines show cases where it becomes a carbon source. Positive numbers depict a cumulative terrestrial carbon sink, and negative numbers a cumulative terrestrial source (net carbon release exceeds the amount of carbon sequestered before). Although the terrestrial biosphere has always been a carbon sink, it may become a carbon source in the future (Müller et al., in preparation)
