Coupling Mechanisms Between Biosphere and Atmosphere Affecting Sea Level Rise

Since the industrial revolution, human activities have significantly contributed to the Earth's pollution, in particular the continued emission of greenhouse gases (e.g., carbon dioxide and methane). These emissions are contributing to climate change, with accelerated melting of glaciers, increased acidification of the oceans, an increase in extreme weather events and, ultimately, rising sea levels. Climate change, however, is not just a change in temperature, but involves changes in a number of complex interacting systems within the Earth, of which the biosphere is an important part. The biosphere acts as a buffer against changes in the atmosphere through the carbon cycle, water cycle and energy exchange. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to reveal how the coupling between the biosphere and the atmosphere affects the process of sea level rise, and to explore the coupling mechanism between the two in the carbon cycle and energy exchange, as well as their driving roles in sea level change.
