Amazon's carbon clock is speeding up, and violent storms may be only part of why
Tropical forests store more than 60% of the world's vegetation biomass and are among the most important ecosystems for regulating the global carbon cycle and climate. However, their regulatory role is greatly influenced by the forests' carbon residence time—how long carbon remains in the vegetation biomass pool before it is released again into the atmosphere. This figure is tied to the rate of biomass turnover—how quickly vegetation is replaced through growth and mortality.
