Effects Of Water Availability On Carbon And Water Exchange In A Young Ponderosa Pine Forest: Above- And Belowground Responses
Ruehr, N. K., Martin, J. G., Law, B. E.

Changes in the hydrological cycle, as predicted and currently observed, are expected to significantly impact the water and carbon balance of water-limited forest ecosystems. However, differences in the water-sensitivity of component processes make carbon balance predictions challenging. To examine responses of ecosystem components …

Creating Wetlands: Primary Succession, Water Quality Changes, And Self-Design Over 15 Years
Mitsch, W. J., Zhang, L., Stefanik, K. C., Nahlik, A. M., Anderson, C. J., Bernal, B., Hernandez, M., Song, K.
The succession of vegetation, soil development, water quality changes, and carbon and nitrogen dynamics are summarized in this article for a pair of 1-hectare flow-through-created riverine wetlands for their first 15 years. Wetland plant richness increased from 13 originally planted species to 116 species …

Effects Of Invasive Insects And Fire On Forest Energy Exchange And Evapotranspiration In The New Jersey Pinelands
Clark, K. L., Skowronski, N., Gallagher, M., Renninger, H., Schäfer, K.

We used eddy covariance and meteorological measurements to quantify energy exchange and evapotranspiration (Et) in three representative upland forest stands in the New Jersey Pinelands that were either defoliated by gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) or burned …

Carbon Dioxide Exchange Over Multiple Temporal Scales In An Arid Shrub Ecosystem Near La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico
Bell, T. W., Menzer, O., Troyo-Diéquez, E., Oechel, W. C.

Arid environments represent 30% of the global terrestrial surface, but are largely under-represented in studies of ecosystem carbon flux. Less than 2% of all FLUXNET eddy covariance sites exist in a hot desert climate. Long-term datasets of these regions are vital for capturing the seasonal and interannual variability that occur …

Incorporating Spatial Heterogeneity Created By Permafrost Thaw Into A Landscape Carbon Estimate
Belshe, E. F., Schuur, E. A., Bolker, B. M., Bracho, R.

The future carbon balance of high-latitude ecosystems is dependent on the sensitivity of biological processes (photosynthesis and respiration) to the physical changes occurring with permafrost thaw. Predicting C exchange in these ecosystems is difficult because the thawing of permafrost is a heterogeneous process that creates a complex …

Seasonal Patterns Of Carbon Dioxide And Water Fluxes In Three Representative Tundra Ecosystems In Northern Alaska
Euskirchen, E. S., Bret-Harte, M. S., Scott, G. J., Edgar, C., Shaver, G. R.

Understanding the carbon dioxide and water fluxes in the Arctic is essential for accurate assessment and prediction of the responses of these ecosystems to climate change. In the Arctic, there have been relatively few studies of net CO2, water, and energy exchange using micrometeorological methods due to the difficulty …

Old-Growth CO2 Flux Measurements Reveal High Sensitivity To Climate Anomalies Across Seasonal, Annual And Decadal Time Scales
Wharton, S., Falk, M., Bible, K., Schroeder, M., Paw U, K.T.

The traditional hypothesis that old-growth forests are carbon neutral is under debate as recent studies
show evidence of net carbon sequestration. Here, we present a decade (1998–2008) of carbon dioxide,
water and energy fluxes from an old-growth stand in the American Pacific Northwest to identify
ecosystem-level responses to …
