With the deepening of China’s aging process, changes in the age structure of the population affect the industrial structure and consumption structure in different ways and have a knock-on effect on the whole economic system. Therefore, aging is one of the objective factors affecting future carbon emissions in China. This study analyzes the impact mechanism of aging-related consumption trend on carbon emission efficiency (CEE)...

Accurately assessing the capacity of the modern ocean to photosynthetically fix and sequester atmospheric CO 2 , termed the biological carbon pump (BCP), is a key component in studies on the marine carbon cycle and the global climate system. Particulate organic carbon (POC) flux into the ocean interior is an important indicator of the BCP strength, and it can be directly measured by sediment traps on time scales from days to y...

River transport of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the ocean is a crucial but poorly quantified regional carbon cycle component. Large uncertainties remaining on the riverine DOC export from China, as well as its trend and drivers of change, have challenged the reconciliation between atmosphere‐based and land‐based estimates of China's land carbon sink. Here, we harmonized a large database of riverine in‐situ measurements an...
