Integrating plant–soil interactions into global carbon cycle models (2009, background): “…et al. 2008), sulphur deposition (Monteith et al. 2007), CO2 fertilization (Woodward 2002; Norby et al. 2005) and changes in atmospheric ozone concentration (Sitch et al. 2007) are having a significant effect on ecosystem functioning including emissions of greenhouse gases (Meir, Cox & Grace 2006).”

Evidence of widespread effects of ozone on crops and (semi‐)natural vegetation in Europe (1990–2006) in relation to AOT40‐ and flux‐based risk maps (2011, background): “It has also recently emerged that ozone may reduce the ability of vegetation to absorb carbon dioxide resulting in even greater carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere in the future, further increasing radiative forcing (Felzer et al., 2005; Sitch et al., 2007).”

Tropospheric ozone in CMIP6 simulations (2020, background): “It is also a greenhouse gas (GHG) with a radiative forcing of 0.4± 0.2 Wm−2 (Stevenson et al., 2013; Myhre et al., 2013) and plays an important role in controlling the strength of the terrestrial carbon sink (Sitch et al., 2007).”
Microbial contributions to climate change through carbon cycle feedbacks (2008, background): “, 2007) and changes in atmosphere ozone concentration (Sitch et al., 2007).”
