The Carbon Balance Of Tropical, Temperate And Boreal Forests
Malhi, Y., Baldocchi, D. D., Jarvis, P. G.

Forest biomes are major reserves for terrestrial carbon, and major components of global primary productivity. The carbon balance of forests is determined by a number of component …

Effects Of CO2 Enrichment On The Photosynthetic Light Response Of Sun And Shade Leaves Of Canopy Sweetgum Trees (Liquidambar Styraciflua) In A Forest Ecosystem
Herrick, J. D., Thomas, R. B.

To investigate whether sun and shade leaves respond differently to CO2 enrichment, we examined photosynthetic light response of sun and shade leaves in canopy sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua L.) trees growing at ambient and elevated (ambient + 200 μl l−1) atmospheric CO2 in the Brookhaven …

Phenology And Productivity Of Saw Palmetto ( Serenoa Repens ) In A North Florida Slash Pine Plantation
Gholz, H. L., Guerin, D. N., Cropper, W. P.

Phenological observations were used in conjunction with destructive sampling and measurements of plant cover to determine the aboveground seasonal dynamics, annual aboveground …

Water And Carbon Dioxide Exchange At A Boreal Young Jack Pine Forest In The BOREAS Northern Study Area
Joiner, D. W., McCaughey, J. H., Lafleur, P. M., Bartlett, P. A.

Climatological measurements, including carbon dioxide flux density, were made from May to September 1994 and from May to November 1996 at a young jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) forest near Thompson, …

Modeling BRFAnd Radiation Regime Of Boreal And Tropical Forests
Gastellu-Etchegorry, J., Guillevic, P., Zagolski, F., Demarez, V., Trichon, V., Deering, D., Leroy, M.

Monitoring of forest evolution and functioning with remote sensing depends on canopy BRF (bidirectional reflectance factor) sensitivity to biophysical parameters and to canopy PAR (photosynthetically active radiation) regime. Here, we study the canopy BRF of a tropical (Sumatra) …

Characterization Of Radiation Regimes In Nonrandom Forest Canopies: Theory, Measurements, And A Simplified Modeling Approach
Kucharik, C. J., Norman, J. M., Gower, S. T.
We used field measurements and Monte Carlo simulations of canopy gap-size distribution and gap fraction to examine how beam radiation interacts with clumped boreal forest canopies of aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.), black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) and jack pine (Pinus …

Seasonal Patterns And Environmental Control Of Carbon Dioxide And Water Vapour Exchange In An Ecotonal Boreal Forest
Hollinger, D. Y., Goltz, S. M., Davidson, E. A., Lee, J. T., Tu, K., Valentine, H. T.

Carbon dioxide, water vapour, and sensible heat fluxes were measured above and within a spruce dominated forest near the southern ecotone of the boreal forest in Maine, USA. Summer, mid-day carbon dioxide uptake was higher than at other boreal coniferous forests, averaging about – 13 μmol CO2 m–2 s–1. …

Dynamics Of Isotopic Exchange Of Carbon Dioxide In A Tennessee Deciduous Forest
Bowling, D. R., Baldocchi, D. D., Monson, R. K.

The combination of isotopic measurements and micrometeorological flux measurements is a powerful new approach that will likely lead to new insight into the dynamics of CO2 exchange between terrestrial …

Photosynthetic Acclimation To Elevated Atmospheric CO2 Concentration In The Florida Scrub-Oak Species Quercus Geminata And Quercus Myrtifolia Growing In Their Native Environment
Li, J., Dijkstra, P., Hinkle, C. R., Wheeler, R. M., Drake, B. G.

Long-term effects of elevated CO2 concentration (ambient plus 350 μmol mol−1) on leaf photosynthetic acclimation of two species of a scrub-oak community, Quercus myrtifolia Willd. and Quercus geminata Small, were studied. Plants of both species were grown in open-top chambers in their natural …

Effects Of Climatic Variability On The Annual Carbon Sequestration By A Boreal Aspen Forest
Chen, W. J., Black, T. A., Yang, P. C., Barr, A. G., Neumann, H. H., Nesic, Z., Blanken, P. D., Novak, M. D., Eley, J., Ketler, R. J., Cuenca, R.

To evaluate the carbon budget of a boreal deciduous forest, we measured CO2 fluxes using the eddy covariance technique above an old aspen (OA) forest in Prince Albert National Park, Saskatchewan, Canada, in 1994 and 1996 as part of the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS). We found that the OA forest is a strong …
