Large datasets of greenhouse gas and energy surface-atmosphere fluxes measured with the eddy-covariance technique (e.g., FLUXNET2015, AmeriFlux BASE) are widely used to benchmark models and remote-sensing products. This study addresses one of the major challenges facing model-data integration: To what spatial extent do flux measurements …

Changes In Photosynthesis And Soil Moisture Drive The Seasonal Soil Respiration-Temperature Hysteresis Relationship
Zhang, Q., Phillips, R. P., Manzoni, S., Scott, R. L., Oishi, A. C., Finzi, A., Daly, E., Vargas, R., Novick, K. A.

In nearly all large-scale terrestrial ecosystem models, soil respiration is represented as a function of soil temperature. However, the relationship between soil respiration and soil temperature is highly variable across sites and there is often a pronounced hysteresis in the soil respiration-temperature relationship over the course …

Temporal Dynamics Of Aerodynamic Canopy Height Derived From Eddy Covariance Momentum Flux Data Across North American Flux Networks

Aerodynamic canopy height (ha) is the effective height of vegetation canopy for its influence on atmospheric fluxes and is a key parameter of surface‐atmosphere coupling. However, methods to estimate ha from data are limited. This synthesis evaluates the applicability and robustness of the calculation of ha from eddy covariance …

Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Conditions Regulating Convective Cloud Formation Above Southeastern US Pine Plantations
Manoli, G., Domec, J.C., Novick, K.A., Oishi, A.C., Noormets, A., Marani, M., Katul, G.

Loblolly pine trees (Pinus taeda L.) occupy more than 20% of the forested area in the Southern United States, represent more than 50%of the standing pine volume in this region, and remove from the atmosphere about 500 g C m−2 per year through net ecosystem CO2 exchange. Hence, their significance as a major regional carbon sink …

Nocturnal Evapotranspiration In Eddy-Covariance Records From Three Co-Located Ecosystems In The Southeastern U.S.: Implications For Annual Fluxes
Novick, K., Oren, R., Stoy, P., Siqueira, M., Katul, G.

Nocturnal evapotranspiration (ET_N) is often assumed to be negligible in terrestrial ecosystems, reflecting the common assumption that plant stomata close at night to prevent water loss from transpiration. However, recent evidence across a wide …

Estimating Components Of Forest Evapotranspiration: A Footprint Approach For Scaling Sap Flux Measurements
Oishi, A. C., Oren, R., Stoy, P. C.

Forest evapotranspiration (ET) estimates that include scaled sap flux measurements often underestimate eddy covariance (EC)-measured latent heat flux (LE). We investigated potential causes for this bias using 4 years of coupled sap flux and LE measurements from a mature …
