Response to Comment on "Contrasting carbon cycle responses of the tropical continents to the 2015-2016 El Niño"

Chevallier showed a column CO ([Formula: see text]) anomaly of ±0.5 parts per million forced by a uniform net biosphere exchange (NBE) anomaly of 2.5 gigatonnes of carbon over the tropical continents within a year, so he claimed that the inferred NBE uncertainties should be larger than presented in...

Summary:Chevallier showed a column CO ([Formula: see text]) anomaly of ±0.5 parts per million forced by a uniform net biosphere exchange (NBE) anomaly of 2.5 gigatonnes of carbon over the tropical continents within a year, so he claimed that the inferred NBE uncertainties should be larger than presented in Liu We show that a much concentrated NBE anomaly led to much larger [Formula: see text] perturbations.
