Percolation Observations In An Arid Piedmont Watershed And Linkages To Historical Conditions In The Chihuahuan Desert
Schreiner-McGraw, A. P., Vivoni, E. R.

A critical hydrologic process in arid and semiarid regions is the interaction between ephemeral channels and groundwater aquifers. Generally, it has been found that ephemeral channels contribute to groundwater recharge when streamflow infiltrates into the sandy bottoms of channels. This process has traditionally been studied in channels …

NDVI derived from near-infrared-enabled digital cameras: Applicability across different plant functional types
Filippa, G, Cremonesea, E, Migliavacca M., Galvagno, M., Sonnentag, O., Humphrey, E., Hufkens,K., Ryu, Y. Verfaillie, J., Morra di Cella, U., Richardson, A.

Time series of vegetation indices (e.g. normalized difference vegetation index [NDVI]) and color indices (e.g. green chromatic coordinate [GCC]) based on radiometric measurements are now available at different spatial and temporal scales ranging from weekly satellite observations to sub-hourly in situ measurements …

Trapped Greenhouse Gases In The Permafrost Active Layer: Preliminary Results For Methane Peaks In Vertical Profiles Of Frozen Alaskan Soil Cores
Byun, E., Yang, J., Kim, Y., Ahn, J.

Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.Degradation of organic carbon stored in permafrost may represent an additional source of atmospheric greenhouse gases (GHGs) in a warming climate. However, there is no clear understanding of how seasonal freeze–thaw affects gas permeability and emission of methane in permafrost soils, …

Revisiting the partitioning of net ecosystem exchange of CO2 into photosynthesis and respiration with simultaneous flux measurements of 13CO2 and CO2, soil respiration and a biophysical model, CANVEG.
Oikawa, P. Y., C. Sturtevant, S. H. Knox, J. Verfaillie, Y. W. Huang, and D. D. Baldocchi.

The partitioning of net ecosystem exchange of CO(NEE) into photosynthesis and respiration can be challenging and is often associated with assumptions that yield unknown amounts of uncertainty, thereby hindering model development. This occurs because we are inferring two pieces of information from one equation and measurement, …

Long-Term Release Of Carbon Dioxide From Arctic Tundra Ecosystems In Alaska
Euskirchen, E. S., Bret-Harte, M. S., Shaver, G. R., Edgar, C. W., Romanovsky, V. E.

Releases of the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) from thawing permafrost are expected to be among the largest feedbacks to climate from arctic ecosystems. However, the current net carbon (C) balance of terrestrial arctic ecosystems is unknown. Recent studies suggest that these ecosystems are sources, sinks, …

Contrasting strategies of hydraulic control in two co-dominant temperate tree species
Matheny AM, Fiorella RP, Bohrer G, Poulsen CJ, Morin TH, Wunderlich A, Vogel CS, Curtis PS.

Biophysical controls on plant water status exist at the leaf, stem, and root levels. Therefore, we
pose that hydraulic strategy is a combination of traits governing water use at each of these three
levels. We studied sap flux, stem water storage, stomatal conductance, photosynthesis, and
growth of red oaks (Quercus rubra) and …

Using Data From Landsat, Modis, Viirs And Phenocams To Monitor The Phenology Of California Oak/Grass Savanna And Open Grassland Across Spatial Scales
Liu, Y., Hill, M. J., Zhang, X., Wang, Z., Richardson, A. D., Hufkens, K., Filippa, G., Baldocchi, D. D., Ma, S., Verfaillie, J., Schaaf, C. B.

tThe Mediterranean-type oak/grass savanna of California is composed of widely spaced oak trees withunderstory grasses. These savanna regions are interspersed with large areas of more open grasslands.The ability of remotely sensed data (with various spatial resolutions) to monitor the phenology in thesewater-limited oak/grass savannas …

Using digital camera and Landsat imagery with eddy covariance data to model gross primary production in restored wetlands
Knox, Sara Helen Dronova, Iryna Sturtevant, Cove Oikawa, Patricia Y. Matthes, Jaclyn Hatala Verfaillie, Joseph Baldocchi, Dennis

Wetlands have the ability to accumulate large amounts of carbon (C), and therefore wetland restoration has been proposed as a means of sequestering atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) to help mitigate climate change. There is a growing interest in using the C services of wetlands to help reduce habitat loss and finance restoration projects. …
