Skubel, R., Arain, M. A., Peichl, M., Brodeur, J. J., Khomik, M., Thorne, R., Trant, J., Kula, M.

This study analyzed age-related water use dynamics across three temperate conifer forest plantations (aged 11-, 39-, and 74-years old, as of 2013, henceforth referred to as TP02, TP74, and TP39, where the last two digits represent the year of planting) in southern Ontario, Canada from 2008 to 2013. Eddy covariance-measured mean evapotranspiration …

The Impact Of Induced Drought On Transpiration And Growth In A Temperate Pine Plantation Forest
MacKay, S. L., Arain, M. A., Khomik, M., Brodeur, J. J., Schumacher, J., Hartmann, H., Peichl, M.

The effects of early growing season droughts on water and carbon balances in conifer forests are poorly understood. In this study, the response of canopy transpiration (Ec) and growth …

Influence Of Stand Age On The Magnitude And Seasonality Of Carbon Fluxes In Canadian Forests
Coursolle, C., Margolis, H., Giasson, M., Bernier, P., Amiro, B., Arain, M., Barr, A., Black, T., Goulden, M., McCaughey, J., Chen, J., Dunn, A., Grant, R., Lafleur, P.

Proper management and accounting of forest carbon requires good knowledge of how disturbances and climate affect the carbon dynamics of different stand types. We have investigated such relationships by measuring, over a 5-year period (2003–2007), the net ecosystem productivity (NEP), gross ecosystem productivity …

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 …

Age Effects On Carbon Fluxes In Temperate Pine Forests
Peichl, M., Arain, M. A., Brodeur, J. J.

This study evaluates age-related patterns of ecosystem carbon (C) fluxes in a chronosequence (5-, 18-, 33-, and 68-year old in 2007) of planted pine (Pinus strobus L.) forests in southern Ontario, Canada, from 2003 to 2007. Carbon fluxes determined with the eddy covariance technique were normalized by differences in site …

Peichl, M., Brodeur, J. J., Khomik, M., Arain, M. A.

We present four years (2005–2008) of biometric (B) and eddy-covariance (EC) measurements of carbon (C) fluxes to constrain estimates of gross primary production (GPP), net primary production (NPP), ecosystem respiration (RE) and net ecosystem production (NEP) in an age-sequence (6-, 19-, 34-, and 69-years-old in 2008) of pine forests …
