Agricultural expansion in the Brazilian Cerrado ecoregion has been causing extensive land use and land cover changes (LULCC), drastically shifting the carbon cycle dynamics of the affected ecosystems. However, accurate in situ observations of the net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide (NEE) from wooded Cerrado (Cerrado sensu stricto) …

The Cerrado sensu stricto, so-called wooded Cerrado, is one of the many phytophysiognomies of the undisturbed Brazilian Cerrado ecoregion holding a biodiversity hotspot towards an extensive area. Thus, such land is under constant land use and cover changes mainly due to the demand for agriculture land, sector with the highest consumption …

Evapotranspiration (ET) from the land surface to the atmosphere is a major component of Earth’s water cycle, and comprises both transpiration (T) of xylem water from plants and evaporation (E) of water from soils and vegetation surfaces. These two component fluxes respond differently to changes in temperature, water availability …

Saline pans are environments with ephemeral to persistent evaporite crusts, surface and groundwater brine, little to no vegetation, and low topographic gradients. These characteristics make them sensitive to diverse hydrological processes. This research provides guidance on assessing and interpreting fluctuations in saline pan groundwater …

Canopy temperature (Tc) plays an important role in regulating the rates of mass and energy fluxes at the leaf surface. Better understanding of the relationship between Tc and water availability may enable more accurate monitoring of ecosystem functioning in a changing climate. Here, we used high spatiotemporal resolution thermal …

At the northern high latitudes, rapid warming, associated changes in the hydrological cycle, and rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations, [CO2], are observed at present. Under rapid environmental changes, it is important to understand the current and future trajectories of the CO2 budget in high-latitude ecosystems. In this …
