Natural rese rvoirs on land and in the ocean hold large quantities of carbon\, which is exchanged with the atmosphere on time scales ranging from seconds to hund reds of thousands of years. This first lecture will explain what we know a bout the contemporary carbon cycle. It will detail the processes that regu late the storage of carbon in the terrestrial biosphere and in the ocean a nd present the latest data on the trends and variability in these ‘carbon sinks’. The observed changes in the carbon sinks will be discussed in the context of a changing climate.
