Abstract

IBIS (Integrated Biosphere Simulator) model is an ecosystem process model, which represents the research direction of a global carbon cycle simulation. Based on the existing research achievements, the regional ecological carbon sink potential is simulated from point to surface with a long time serie of meteorological data (1954-2010), data on different ecosystem vegetation types, soil texture data, terrain data and remote sensing data. The results are listed as follows: there is no significant variation of potential carbon sink of Shenzhen vegetation over the past 30 years, carbon sequestration caapcity ranges within 43.52-55.82×104Mg C/a, and the potential carbon sink intensity value within 0-624 C/m2/a. Precipitation is a main factor which influnces the ecosystem carbon sink intensity in Shenzhen City. The carbon sink intensity of ecosystem is increased with more annual precipitation.
