The atmosphere concentration of CO2 is steadily increasing and causing climate change. To achieve the Paris 1.5 or 2 oC target, negative emissions technologies must be deployed in addition to reducing carbon emissions. The ocean is a large carbon sink but the potential of marine primary producers to contribute to carbon neutrality remains unclear. Here we review the alterations to carbon capture and sequestration of marine primary producers (including traditional ‘blue carbon’ plants, microalgae, and macroalgae) in the Anthropocene, and, for the first time, assess and compare the potential of various marine primary producers to carbon neutrality and climate change mitigation via biogeoengineering approaches. The contributions of marine primary producers to carbon sequestration have been decreasing in the Anthropocene due to the decrease in biomass driven by direct anthropogenic activities and climate change. The potential of blue carbon plants (mangroves, saltmarshes, and seagrasses) is limited by the available areas for their revegetation. Microalgae appear to have a large potential due to their ubiquity but how to enhance their carbon sequestration efficiency is very complex and uncertain. On the other hand, macroalgae can play an essential role in mitigating climate change through extensive offshore cultivation due to higher carbon sequestration capacity and substantial available areas. This approach seems both technically and economically feasible due to the development of offshore aquaculture and a well-established market for macroalgal products. Synthesis and applications: This paper provides new insights and suggests promising directions for utilizing marine primary producers to achieve the Paris temperature target. We propose that macroalgae cultivation can play an essential role in attaining carbon neutrality and climate change mitigation, although its ecological impacts need to be assessed further. To calculate the parameters presented in Table 1, the relevant keywords "mangroves, salt marshes, macroalgae, microalgae, global area, net primary productivity, CO2 sequestration" were searched through the ISI Web of Science and Google Scholar in July 2021. Recent data published after 2010 were collected and used since area and productivity of plants change with decade. For data with limited availability, such as net primary productivity (NPP) of seagrasses and global area and NPP of wild macroalgae, data collection was extended back to 1980. Total NPP and CO2 sequestration for mangroves, salt marshes, seagrasses and wild macroalgae were obtained by the multiplication of area and NPP/CO2 sequestration density and subjected to error propagation analysis. Data were expressed as means ± standard error.

Project: Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) datasets - These data have been generated as part of the internationally-coordinated Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6; see also GMD Special Issue: http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/special_issue590.html). The simulation data provides a basis for climate research designed to answer fundamental science questions and serves as resource for authors of the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC-AR6). CMIP6 is a project coordinated by the Working Group on Coupled Modelling (WGCM) as part of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP). Phase 6 builds on previous phases executed under the leadership of the Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison (PCMDI) and relies on the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) and the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) along with numerous related activities for implementation. The original data is hosted and partially replicated on a federated collection of data nodes, and most of the data relied on by the IPCC is being archived for long-term preservation at the IPCC Data Distribution Centre (IPCC DDC) hosted by the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ). The project includes simulations from about 120 global climate models and around 45 institutions and organizations worldwide. Summary: These data include the subset used by IPCC AR6 WGI authors of the datasets originally published in ESGF for 'CMIP6.ScenarioMIP.CAMS.CAMS-CSM1-0.ssp119' with the full Data Reference Syntax following the template 'mip_era.activity_id.institution_id.source_id.experiment_id.member_id.table_id.variable_id.grid_label.version'. The CAMS-CSM 1.0 climate model, released in 2016, includes the following components: atmos: ECHAM5_CAMS (T106; 320 x 160 longitude/latitude; 31 levels; top level 10 mb), land: CoLM 1.0, ocean: MOM4 (tripolar; 360 x 200 longitude/latitude, primarily 1deg latitude/longitude, down to 1/3deg within 30deg of the equatorial tropics; 50 levels; top grid cell 0-10 m), seaIce: SIS 1.0. The model was run by the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China (CAMS) in native nominal resolutions: atmos: 100 km, land: 100 km, ocean: 100 km, seaIce: 100 km.

The Arctic is one of Earth’s regions most susceptible to climate change. However, the in-situ long-term observations used for climate research are relatively sparse in the Arctic Ocean, and the simulations from current climate models exhibit remarkable biases in the Arctic. Here we present an Arctic Ocean dynamical downscaling dataset based on a high-resolution ice-ocean coupled model FESOM and a climate model FIO-ESM. The dataset includes 115-year (1900–2014) historical simulations and two 86-year future scenario simulations (2015–2100) under scenarios SSP245 and SSP585. The historical results demonstrate that the root mean square errors of temperature and salinity in the dynamical downscaling dataset are much smaller than those from CMIP6 (the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6) climate models. The common biases, such as the too deep and too thick Atlantic layer in climate models, are reduced significantly by dynamical downscaling. This dataset serves as a crucial long-term data source for climate change assessments and scientific research in the Arctic Ocean, providing valuable information for the scientific community.

# Data on: Projecting spatiotemporal dynamics of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome in the mainland of China [https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.vdncjsz1z](https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.vdncjsz1z) This dataset is the data used in the paper of Global change biology entitled "Projecting spatiotemporal dynamics of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome in the mainland of China". We use an integrated multi-model, multi-scenario framework to assess the impact of global climate change on SFTS disease in the mainland of China. ## Description of the data and file structure The predicted annual incidence of national SFTS cases with or without human population reduction under four RCPs under different climate change scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0, and RCP8.5) in the 2030s, 2050s, and 2080s. The value represents the annual incidence, and the unit is 105/year. The Dataset-1 file includes the predicted annual incidence of national SFTS cases with a fixed future human population under different climate change scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0, and RCP8.5) in the 2030s, 2050s, and 2080s. The Dataset-2 file includes the predicted annual incidence of national SFTS cases in the 2030s, 2050s, and 2080s with human population reduction (SSP2) under four RCPs. ## Sharing/Access information Data was derived from the following sources: * https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.16969 This dataset is the data used in the paper of Global change biology entitled "Projecting spatiotemporal dynamics of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome in the mainland of China". We use an integrated multi-model, multi-scenario framework to assess the impact of global climate change on SFTS disease in the mainland of China. The SFTS incidence in three time periods (2030-2039, 2050-2059, 2080-2089) is predicted to be increased as compared to the 2010s in the context of various RCPs. The projected spatiotemporal dynamics of SFTS will be heterogeneous across provinces. Notably, we predict possible outbreaks in Xinjiang and Yunnan in the future, where only sporadic cases have been reported previously. These findings highlight the need for population awareness of SFTS in endemic regions, and enhanced monitoring in potential risk areas.  See the Materials and methods section in the original paper. The code used in the statistical analyses are present in the paper and/or the Supplementary Materials.

Aim: Climate change threatens freshwater faunal diversity. To prioritize areas for conservation, patterns in the distribution of species must be understood. We apply genetic analysis and species distribution models to identify patterns in the distribution of freshwater amphipods around Xinjiang, China, and project the impact of climate change on endemic species. Location: Xinjiang, China. Methods: A time-calibrated tree containing 37 freshwater amphipod molecular samples from Xinjiang is built to calculate phylogenetic diversity, the standardized effect sizes of phylogenetic diversity, weighted endemism, and phylogenetic endemism, in 100 × 100 km grid cells. Niche differentiation among species in an area of high phylogenetic endemism is explored using n-dimensional hypervolumes and principal components analyses. Present-day and projected future suitability of habitat of endemic freshwater amphipod species is described using species distribution models. Results: Areas of high freshwater amphipod diversity occur along the western boundary of Xinjiang; Areas north of Irtysh River, Tian Shan mountains, and the eastern margin of Pamir, have high phylogenetic endemism. Seasonal temperature and average annual water temperature contribute most to niche differentiation between geographically related freshwater species, negatively affect the projected distributions of endemic amphipods, and with continued warming, reduce future range distributions or latitudinal shifts of species. Main Conclusions: High freshwater amphipod phylogenetic endemism occurs in Xinjiang. Environmental factors are responsible for niche differentiation of endemic species. Future climate change will substantially affect the geographic distributions of endemic amphipods. Conservation efforts should be prioritized in areas with highly concentrated phylogenetic endemism. # Diversity of endemic cold-water amphipods threatened by climate warming in northwestern China [https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.h44j0zpsg](https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.h44j0zpsg) Datasets for phylogenetic analysis. ## Description of the data and file structure 1.gene\_partition.txt: Used to explain the position of each gene in a tandem sequence. 2.xinjiang\_28S\_COI.fasta: A file of tandem sequence. 3.RAxML\_xinjiang\_tree.tre: A phylogenetic tree from the 52-tip data set. 4.MCMC\_tree.tre: A time-calibrated tree using three calibration points. ##

Aim: Climate warming and biodiversity loss both alter plant productivity, yet we lack an understanding of how biodiversity regulates the responses of ecosystems to warming. In this study, we examine how plant diversity regulates the responses of grassland productivity to experimental warming using meta-analytic techniques. Location: Global Major taxa studied: Grassland ecosystems Methods: Our meta-analysis is based on warming responses of 40 different plant communities obtained from 20 independent studies on grasslands across five continents. Results: Our results show that plant diversity and its responses to warming were the most important factors regulating the warming effects on plant productivity, among all the factors considered (plant diversity, climate and experimental settings). Specifically, warming increased plant productivity when plant diversity (indicated by effective number of species) in grasslands was lesser than 10, whereas warming decreased plant productivity when plant diversity was greater than 10. Moreover, the structural equation modelling showed that the magnitude of warming enhanced plant productivity by increasing the performance of dominant plant species in grasslands of diversity lesser than 10. The negative effects of warming on productivity in grasslands with plant diversity greater than 10 were partly explained by diversity-induced decline in plant dominance. Main Conclusions: Our findings suggest that the positive or negative effect of warming on grassland productivity depends on how biodiverse a grassland is. This could mainly owe to differences in how warming may affect plant dominance and subsequent shifts in interspecific interactions in grasslands of different plant diversity levels.
