Climate change is affecting the phenology of terrestrial ecosystems. In deciduous forests, phenology in leaf area index (LAI) is the primary driver of seasonal variation in the fraction of absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (fAPAR), which drives photosynthesis. Remote sensing has been widely used to estimate LAI and fAPAR. …

To decrease negative environmental impacts associated with row crop agriculture, the conversion of conventional agricultural lands to no-till with cover crops or to restored prairie in the Midwest U.S. has been proposed and has the potential to alter hydrologic behavior. Our understanding of the impacts of this conversion on water …

Measurements of ecosystem carbon (C) fluxes in temperate forests are concentrated in the Northern Hemisphere, leaving the functionally diverse temperate forests in the Southern Hemisphere underrepresented. Here, we report three years (February 2018-January 2021) of C fluxes, studied with eddy-covariance and closed chamber techniques, …

Sustainable intensification of rice farming is crucial to meeting human food needs while reducing environmental impacts. Rice production represents 8% of all anthropogenic emissions of CH4, a potent greenhouse gas. Cultivation practices that minimize the number of days the rice fields are flooded, such as irrigation using the alternate …

Identifying ecosystems with high carbon uptake is essential to establish protection policies that mitigate the increase of greenhouse gasses due to human activities. Although salt marshes cover small continental areas, they assimilate atmospheric CO2 more efficiently than other terrestrial ecosystems. An atmospheric CO2 flux data …

Tree water use is the dominant terrestrial hydrologic flux globally, and has a dominant regulatory influence over the carbon cycle. Sap flow through the tree is also a useful model diagnostic for FATES-Hydro. Our objective is to quantify variation in tree water use at three sites across a rainfall gradient in Panama. Our ultimate …

High-latitude warming has stimulated CO2 and CH4 emissions from permafrost peatland. This study evaluated growing season CH4 and CO2 emissions from a forest floor of a lowland black spruce forest on permafrost in interior Alaska using automated-closed chambers, anaerobic incubation of peat soils and next-generation sequencing. The …
