Towards Right Answer for the Right Reasons in Global Land Carbon Sink Estimates.
Review in Global change biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Quantifying the global land carbon sink is essential for understanding carbon-climate feedbacks and developing effective mitigation strategies. Despite decades of research using eddy covariance, remote sensing, and atmospheric observations, carbon sink estimates remain highly uncertain across different approaches. The key challenge is to obtain the right global land carbon sink estimates for the right reasons. In this review, we first provide an overview of current methodologies for estimating terrestrial carbon sinks, including FLUXNET observations, top-down atmospheric inversions, and bottom-up approaches. We then leverage insights learned from FLUXNET to evaluate the observed range of annual net ecosystem exchange (NEE), gross primary production (GPP)-ecosystem respiration (R
