The article presents an overview of scientific publications on the subject of the study «carbon balance in terrestrial ecosystems», made for the territory of Japan and indexed in the Scopus database for the period 2017-2021. Within this theme, the areas with the highest number of articles are highlighted: carbon fluxes in soils, carbon stocks in above ground phytomass (mainly studies of the ecosystems of Hokkaido), features of carbon dioxide sequestration by various plant species typical for Japan, as well as the carbon balance dynamics associated with deforestation, reforestation and natural phenomena such as typhoons. The most active in publishing activity scientific and academic institutions were identified (Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute; National Agriculture and Food Research Organization; Hokkaido University).

Представлен обзор научных публикаций о потоках углерода в наземных экосистемах Японии, проиндексированных в базе данных Scopus за период 2017-2021 гг. Внутри обозначенной темы выделены подтемы, по которым отмечено наибольшее число статей: потоки углерода в почвах, в наземной фитомассе (преимущественно это исследования экосистем острова Хоккайдо); особенности поглощения углекислого газа различными видами растений, а также изменения баланса углерода, связанные с вырубками, лесовосстановлением и таким природным явлением, как тайфуны. Обозначены наиболее активные по публикациям организации (ряд научно-исследовательских институтов и университетов): научный институт лесного хозяйства (Япония), национальная сельскохозяйственная и продовольственная научная организация (Япония) и Университет Хоккайдо (Япония).
