陽光、二氧化碳及水份充足情況下,光合作用在樹葉裡頭發生,二氧化碳的碳原子將儲存在樹木裡,並釋出氧氣。429Please respect copyright.PENANA4cMmHAtlXR

秋天時份,溫度驟降,樹木意識到冬天即將來臨,便啟動落葉機制,以免冬天低溫為樹葉帶來傷害。429Please respect copyright.PENANAjiDH7jG3AE

(圖2)根據這個理念,全球氣侯所導致的溫度提升,將會使綠葉時間延長1-3星期。429Please respect copyright.PENANAazoGCokkBT

但出乎意外的是,實驗及現實證據指出,綠葉時間反而是平均縮短了3-6日(Ref1)。429Please respect copyright.PENANAM1R50XraoR

(圖3)分析由1948-2015年達434,226項的樹木數據再加上各種實驗,科學家得出以下的解釋。429Please respect copyright.PENANAApFJEIU5Ht

全球變暖再加上大氣二氧化碳含量上升,樹木的光合代謝率亦因而有所提升。429Please respect copyright.PENANAX82BuCQNO7

光合代謝的過程中,二氧化碳的碳原子會以固體方式儲存在榭木內。429Please respect copyright.PENANA18SzU7XAQK
如果固體碳原子到達一定的程度,就算溫度和暖,亦會觸發樹葉變黃及落葉發生。429Please respect copyright.PENANANE0CjgZ53S

(圖4)圖中展示出兩種導致落葉情況發生的可能性。429Please respect copyright.PENANAOCvXs5AsRW

這表示出每一棵樹木均有其轉化二氧化碳至氧氣的限額,並不能夠無窮無盡地吸收二氧化碳。429Please respect copyright.PENANA37n12Zuihe
單純依靠種植樹木意圖來改善全球的氣候變化,實際上亦有一定的限制。429Please respect copyright.PENANAkiuuKutijE
