Sedan 2004 har stora regioner i Nordamerika och Eurasien upplevt en oförväntad nedkylning under höstarna. Forskare har länge trott att den skulle leda till minskade nettoutsläpp av koldioxid från landekosystemen. Men en omfattande studie visar nu att ekosystemen i stället har ökat sina utsläpp. Den senaste rapporten från FN:s klimatpanel IPCC visar tydligt hur uppvärmningen är direkt relaterad til
