We conducted studies by means of meta-analysis and process-based model, aiming at clarifying broad-scale responses of terrestrial vegetation to elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration. In the meta-analysis, we collected a large number of literature data on leaf area index and correlated it statistically with climatic and biological factors. In the modeling study, we analyzed the impacts of elevated CO2 on terrestrial ecosystems, using a global model including stomatal and photosynthetic response processes. Based on these results, we discussed the feedback effects of terrestrial ecosystems to the climate system under human-induced change.
