Disturbances are important for renewal of North American forests. Here we summarize more than 180 site years of eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide flux made at forest chronosequences in North America. The disturbances included stand-replacing fire (Alaska, Arizona, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan) and harvest (British Columbia, …

Effective leaf area index is routinely quantified with optical instruments that measure gap fraction through the probability of beam penetration of sunlight through the vegetation. However, there have been few efforts to obtain theoretically consistent effective leaf area …

A new observational approach is presented to approximate the uncertainty (scatter or error variance) in 1-h averaged turbulence fluxes …

Full accounting of ecosystem carbon (C) pools and fluxes in coastal plain ecosystems remains less studied compared with upland systems, even though the C stocks in these systems …

We assessed the differential advantages of deciduousness and evergreenness by examining 26 site-years of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and energy flux measurements from five comparable oak woodlands in France, Italy, Portugal, and California (USA). On average, the evergreen and deciduous oak woodlands assimilated and respired similar …
