Controls On Carbon Dynamics By Ecosystem Structure And Climate For Southeastern U.S. Slash Pine Plantations
Bracho, R., Starr, G., Gholz, H. L., Martin, T. A., Cropper, W. P., Loescher, H. W.

Abstract. Planted pine forests (plantations) in the southeastern United States are an
important component of the continent’s carbon balance. Forest carbon dynamics are affected
by a range of factors including climatic variability. Multiyear droughts have affected the
region in the past, and an increase in the frequency of drought …

Evidence Of Increased Net Ecosystem Productivity Associated With A Longer Vegetated Season In A Deciduous Forest In South-Central Indiana, Usa
DRAGONI, D., SCHMID, H. P., WAYSON, C. A., POTTER, H., GRIMMOND, C. S., RANDOLPH, J. C.

Observations of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of carbon and its biophysical drivers have been collected at the AmeriFlux site in the Morgan-Monroe State Forest (MMSF) in Indiana, USA since 1998. Thus, this is one of the few deciduous forest sites in the world, where a decadal analysis on net ecosystem productivity (NEP) trends is …

Differential Responses Of Production And Respiration To Temperature And Moisture Drive The Carbon Balance Across A Climatic Gradient In New Mexico
Anderson-Teixeira, K. J., Delong, J. P., Fox, A. M., Brese, D. A., Litvak, M. E.

Southwestern North America faces an imminent transition to a warmer, more arid climate, and it is critical to understand how these changes will affect the carbon balance of southwest ecosystems. In order to test our hypothesis that differential responses of production and respiration to temperature and moisture shape the carbon balance …

Analysis Of Nitrogen Controls On Carbon And Water Exchanges In A Conifer Forest Using The CLASS-CTEMN+ Model
Huang, S., Arain, M. A., Arora, V. K., Yuan, F., Brodeur, J., Peichl, M.

A carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycle-coupled model, CLASS-CTEMN+ was developed by incorporating soil and plant N cycling algorithms in the Canadian Land Surface Scheme (CLASS) and the Canadian Terrestrial Ecosystem Model (CTEM), used in the Canadian Global …

Interpreting CO2 Fluxes Over A Suburban Lawn: The Influence Of Traffic Emissions
Hiller, R. V., McFadden, J. P., Kljun, N.

Turf-grass lawns are ubiquitous in the United States. However direct measurements of land–atmosphere fluxes using the eddy-covariance method above lawn ecosystems are challenging due to the typically small dimensions of lawns and the heterogeneity of land use in an urbanised landscape. Given their typically small patch sizes, there …

Three-Dimensional Canopy Fuel Loading Predicted Using Upward And Downward Sensing LiDAR Systems
Skowronski, N. S., Clark, K. L., Duveneck, M., Hom, J.

We calibrated upward sensing profiling and downward sensing scanning LiDAR systems to estimates of canopy fuel loading developed from field plots and allometric equations, and then used the LiDAR datasets to predict canopy bulk density (CBD) and crown fuel weight (CFW) in wildfire prone stands in the New Jersey Pinelands. …

Disturbance And The Resilience Of Coupled Carbon And Nitrogen Cycling In A North Temperate Forest
Nave, L.E., Gough, C.M., Maurer, K.D., Bohrer, G, Hardiman, B.S., Le Moine, J., Munoz, A.B., Nadelhoffer, K.J., Sparks, J.P., Strahm, B.D., Vogel, C.S., Curtis, P.S.

Much of our biogeochemical understanding of forest disturbances comes from studies of severe or stand-replacing events, which may have different impacts on coupled carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling than …
