3 Alexander von Humboldt, Kosmos (1845) The term climate refers to a specific property of the atmosphere which however depends on the feedback with the ocean and the land surface

34 Land Cover and Climate Dynamics Vegetation dynamics is an important component in the climate system. Presumably, the terrestrial biosphere amplifies external climate forcing: - Saharan dynamics - Holocene wintertime warming (?) - Glacial cooling (?) At high latitudes (with vegetation-snow albedo feedback) biogeophysical feedback seems to dominate biogeochemical feedback, in the tropics biogeochemical feedback seems to win. Thank you very much for attention! Claussen, Climate of the Past, 2009
