The impact of expanding flooded land area on the annual evaporation of rice. Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
Baldocchi, D., S. Knox, I. Dronova, J. Verfaillie, P. Oikawa, C. Sturtevant, J. H. Matthes, and M. Detto.

The amount of published data on annual evaporation on rice remains extremely limited despite the role of rice as a key food source. We report on six years of rice evaporation measurements, based on the eddy covariance method. This rice was cultivated in the hot dry climate of California, where water is a scarce and precious resource. …

Agricultural peatland restoration: effects of land-use change on greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
Knox, S. H.,, Sturtevant, C., Matthes, J.H., Koteen, L., Verfaillie,J., Baldocchi. D.

Agricultural drainage of organic soils has resulted in vast soil subsidence and contributed to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations. The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in California was drained over a century ago for agriculture and human settlement and has since experienced subsidence rates that are among the …

Gross Ecosystem Photosynthesis Causes A Diurnal Pattern In Methane Emission From Rice
Hatala, J. A., Detto, M., Baldocchi, D. D.

Understanding the relative contribution of environmental and substrate controls on rice paddy methanogenesis is critical for developing mechanistic models of landscape-scale methane (CH4) flux. A diurnal pattern in observed rice paddy CH4 flux has been attributed to fluctuations in soil temperature physically …

Greenhouse Gas (CO2, CH4, H2O) Fluxes From Drained And Flooded Agricultural Peatlands In The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
Hatala, J. A., Detto, M., Sonnentag, O., Deverel, S. J., Verfaillie, J., Baldocchi, D. D.

The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in California was drained and converted to agriculture more than a century ago, and since then has experienced extreme rates of soil subsidence from peat oxidation. To reverse subsidence and capture carbon there is increasing interest in converting drained agricultural land-use types …
