P., Sottocornola, M., Steinbrecher, R., Sachs, T., Urbaniak, M., Zona, D., Ziemblinska, K.

Peatlands store substantial amounts of carbon and are vulnerable to climate change. We present a modified version of the Organising Carbon and Hydrology In Dynamic Ecosystems (ORCHIDEE) land surface model for simulating the hydrology, surface energy, and CO2 fluxes of peatlands on daily to annual timescales. The model includes a …

Does day and night sampling reduce spurious correlation between canopy photosynthesis and ecosystem respiration?
Dennis Baldocchi, Cove Sturtevant

It is necessary to partition eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide exchange into its offsetting gross fluxes, canopy photosynthesis, and ecosystem respiration, to understand the biophysical controls on the net fluxes. And independent estimates of canopy photosynthesis (G) and ecosystem respiration (R) are needed to validate …

Nitrogen Deposition And Increased Carbon Accumulation In Ombrotrophic Peatlands In Eastern Canada
Turunen, J., Roulet, N. T., Moore, T. R., Richard, P. J.

Recent and long-term accumulation rates of carbon (C), using 210Pb- and 14C-dating, were examined in 23 ombrotrophic peatlands in eastern Canada, where average 1990–1996 atmospheric wet nitrogen (N) deposition ranged from 0.3 to 0.8 g N m−2 yr−1. The average recent rate of C accumulation …

On The Construction And Calibration Of Dual-Probe Heat Capacity Sensors
Ham, J. M., Benson, E. J.

Dual-probe heat-capacity (DPHC) sensors can be used to measure soil heat capacity (C), water content, and temperature. Research was conducted to test design factors that affect sensor calibration, including: (i) calibration media, (ii) diameter and length of the needle probes, (iii) sensor body material, and (vi) duration …

Interannual Variability In The Peatland-Atmosphere Carbon Dioxide Exchange At An Ombrotrophic Bog
Lafleur, P. M., Roulet, N. T., Bubier, J. L., Frolking, S., Moore, T. R.

Eddy covariance measurements of net ecosystem carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange (NEE) were taken at an ombrotrophic bog near Ottawa, Canada from 1 June 1998 to 31 May 2002. Temperatures during this period were above normal except for 2000 and precipitation was near normal in 1998 and 1999, above normal in 2000, and well below …

Modeling Seasonal To Annual Carbon Balance Of Mer Bleue Bog, Ontario, Canada
Frolking, S., Roulet, N. T., Moore, T. R., Lafleur, P. M., Bubier, J. L., Crill, P. M.

Northern peatlands contain enormous quantities of organic carbon within a few meters of the atmosphere and play a significant role in the planetary carbon balance. We have developed a new, process-oriented model of the contemporary carbon balance of northern peatlands, the Peatland Carbon Simulator (PCARS). Components of PCARS are …

Plant Biomass And Production And CO2 Exchange In An Ombrotrophic Bog
Moore, T. R., Bubier, J. L., Frolking, S. E., Lafleur, P. M., Roulet, N. T.
  1. Above-ground biomass was measured at bog hummock, bog hollow and poor-fen sites in Mer Bleue, a large, raised ombrotrophic bog near Ottawa, Ont., Canada. The average above-ground biomass was 587 g m−2 in the bog, composed mainly of shrubs and Sphagnum capitula. In the poor fen, the …

Groundwater Flow Patterns In A Large Peatland
Fraser, C., Roulet, N., Lafleur, M.

Groundwater flow patterns and geochemistry were studied in the Mer Bleue bog, near Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Groundwater flow patterns alternated between recharge, i.e. head gradients producing flow from the surface of the peatland to the deeper peat, and discharge, i.e. head gradients indicating flow from the deeper peat …
