The research topics and objectives for the Lost Creek site include the following: 1) Quantify the differential impact of environmental drivers, radiation, and vapor pressure deficit in an shrub wetland; 2) Determine the key driver, radiation or vapor pressure deficit, of flux data for each tower year, and on the basis of this analysis apply the appropriate model to help explain observed intersite, interannual, and interseasonal variation in evapotranspiration; 3) Cross-site examine the variability of net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide, ecosystem respiration, gross system production and the attendant parameters; 4) Quantify the role of soil moisture in affecting ecosystem respiration; 5) Identify landscape-level patterns in the temperature and moisture response of ecosystem respiration as determined by shrub wetlands and stages of development.
