To increase our understanding of the carbon cycle, we compare regional estimates of CO 2 flux variability for 1980 - 1998 from (SLAVE and LPJ) and ocean (OPA and MIT). Over the land, the phase and amplitude of the different estimates agree well, especially at continental scale. Flux variations are p...
