Summary
In continuation of the first project phase, CE-LAND+ provides spatially detailed quantitative analyses of environmental limits, biogeochemical (especially hydrological) Earth system impacts with related uncertainties, and tradeoffs with other land and water uses of terrestrial carbon dioxide removal (tCDR) strategies (biomass plantations, afforestation).

Methods
Within the Priority Program, CE-LAND+ is the hub to quantify the terrestrial biophysical limitations and impacts of climate engineering (tCDR) with a particular focus on the water cycle.
Role of the project within the SPP
CE-LAND+ interacts with other projects (ComparCE2, CEMICS2, CDR-MIA, SciPol2) to improve understanding of uncertainties and also to integrate social aspects of tCDR.
