Age-Related Changes In Ecosystem Structure And Function And Effects On Water And Carbon Exchange In Ponderosa Pine
Irvine, J., Law, B. E., Kurpius, M. R., Anthoni, P. M., Moore, D., Schwarz, P. A.

As forests age, their structure and productivity change, yet in some cases, annual rates of water loss remain unchanged. To identify mechanisms that might explain such observations, and to determine if widely different age classes of forests differ functionally, we examined young (Y, 25 years), mature (M, 90 years) …

Modeling Temporal And Large-Scale Spatial Variability Of Soil Respiration From Soil Water Availability, Temperature And Vegetation Productivity Indices
Reichstein, M., Rey, A., Freibauer, A., Tenhunen, J., Valentini, R., Banza, J., Casals, P., Cheng, Y., Grünzweig, J. M., Irvine, J., Joffre, R., Law, B. E., Loustau, D., Miglietta, F., Oechel, W., Ourcival, J., Pereira, J. S., Peressotti, A., Ponti, F., Qi, Y., Rambal, S., Rayment, M., Romanya, J., Rossi, F., Tedeschi, V., Tirone, G., Xu, M., Yakir, D.

Field-chamber measurements of soil respiration from 17 different forest and shrubland sites in Europe and North America were summarized and analyzed with the goal to develop a model describing seasonal, interannual and spatial variability of soil respiration as affected by water availability, temperature, and site properties. The …

Changes In Carbon Storage And Fluxes In A Chronosequence Of Ponderosa Pine
Law, B. E., Sun, O. J., Campbell, J., Van Tuyl, S., Thornton, P. E.

Forest development following stand-replacing disturbance influences a variety of ecosystem processes including carbon exchange with the atmosphere. On a series of ponderosa pine (Pinius ponderosa var. Laws.) stands ranging from 9 to> 300 years in central Oregon, USA, we used biological measurements to estimate carbon …

Contrasting Soil Respiration In Young And Old-Growth Ponderosa Pine Forests
Irvine, J., Law, B. E.

Three years of fully automated and manual measurements of soil CO2 efflux, soil moisture and temperature were used to explore the diel, seasonal and inter-annual patterns of soil efflux in an old-growth (250-year-old, O site) and recently regenerating (14-year-old, Y site) ponderosa pine forest in central …

Seasonal Differences In Carbon And Water Vapor Exchange In Young And Old-Growth Ponderosa Pine Ecosystems
Anthoni, P. M., Unsworth, M. H., Law, B. E., Irvine, J., Baldocchi, D. D., Tuyl, S. V., Moore, D.

Eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide and water vapor exchange were made above a young and an old-growth ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex P. & C. Laws) ecosystem located in a semiarid environment in central Oregon. The old-growth stand (O site) is a mixture of 250- and 50-year-old ponderosa …

Spatial And Temporal Variation In Respiration In A Young Ponderosa Pine Forest During A Summer Drought
Law, B., Kelliher, F., Baldocchi, D., Anthoni, P., Irvine, J., Moore, D., Van Tuyl, S.

Respiration rates of heterogeneous forest canopies arise from needles, stems, roots and soil microbes. To assess the temporal and spatial variation in respiration rates of these components in a heterogeneous ponderosa pine forest canopy, and the processes that control these fluxes, we conducted an intensive field study during …

Carbon Storage And Fluxes In Ponderosa Pine Forests At Different Developmental Stages
Law, B., Thornton, P., Irvine, J., Anthoni, P., Van Tuyl, S.

We compared carbon storage and fluxes in young and old ponderosa pine stands in Oregon, including plant and soil storage, net primary productivity, respiration fluxes, eddy …

Carbon Dioxide And Water Vapor Exchange By Young And Old Ponderosa Pine Ecosystems During A Dry Summer
Law, B. E., Goldstein, A. H., Anthoni, P. M., Unsworth, M. H., Panek, J. A., Bauer, M. R., Fracheboud, J. M., Hultman, N.

We investigated key factors controlling mass and energy exchange by a young (6-year-old) ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Laws.) plantation on the west side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and an old-growth ponderosa pine forest (mix of 45- and 250-year-old trees) on the east side of the Cascade Mountains, from June through …

Measuring And Modelling Seasonal Variation Of Carbon Dioxide And Water Vapour Exchange Of A Pinus Ponderosa Forest Subject To Soil Water Deficit
Law, B. E., Williams, M., Anthoni, P. M., Baldocchi, D. D., Unsworth, M. H.

We conducted ecosystem carbon and water vapour exchange studies in an old-growth Pinus ponderosaforest in the Pacific North-west region of the United States. The canopy is heterogeneous, with tall multiaged trees and an open, clumped canopy with low leaf area. Carbon assimilation can occur throughout relatively mild winters, …
