Vegetation - Climate Interaction: How Vegetation Makes The Global Environment, Springer Praxis Books.

By process of elimination, there is net flow of CO2 into vegetation / land (with emissions from them being overall negative aside from fuel combustion), which is unsurprising in contexts ranging from a multitude of studies on co2science.org to how satellite - measured global net terrestrial primary production increased by several percent per decade during the period of global warming (Nemani et al. 2003, for instance).

Also, a recent article on climate - vegetation dynamics concludes that, due to poor scientific understanding of ecological thresholds and their relationship to climate change, we can not accurately predict how or when vegetation will change due to global warming, or even whether these changes will be reversible (Maslin, 2004).

Masek added that the study provided a sneak peek on how the warming climate is changing the global vegetation patterns.
