Relative Linkages of Canopy-Level CO2 Fluxes with the Climatic and Environmental Variables for US Deciduous Forests
Khandker S. Ishtiaq, Omar I. Abdul-Aziz

We used a simple, systematic data-analytics approach to determine the relative linkages of different climate and environmental variables with the canopy-level, half-hourly CO2 fluxes of US deciduous forests. Multi- variate pattern recognition techniques of principal com- ponent and factor analyses were utilized to classify and group …

As Forests Age, Their Climate Effects Shift
Shultz, David

Although it may be difficult for us to observe in our short lifetimes, the composition of trees in a forest can be a very variable thing. When a forest is clear-cut or thinned by fire, the first trees to rebound are often the fastest growing—those that can sprout quicker than their competitors. However, over time, these speedy …

Fluxes Of Energy, Water, And Carbon Dioxide From Mountain Ecosystems At Niwot Ridge, Colorado
Knowles, J. F., Burns, S. P., Blanken, P. D., Monson, R. K.

Background: The eddy covariance (EC) technique provides a direct measure of water vapour and carbon dioxide fluxes between ecosystems and the atmosphere.

Aims: This review article highlights the findings of various studies that have integrated EC observations into basic meteorological, hydrological and ecological research questions …

Increased Water Use Efficiency But Contrasting Tree Growth Patterns In Fitzroya Cupressoides Forests Of Southern Chile During Recent Decades
Urrutia‐Jalabert, R., Malhi, Y., Barichivich, J., Lara, A., Delgado‐Huertas, A., Rodríguez, C. G., Cuq, E.

Little is known about how old‐growth and massive forests are responding to environmental change. We investigated tree‐ring growth and carbon isotopes of the long‐lived and high biomass Fitzroya cupressoid es in two stands growing in contrasting environmental conditions in the Coastal Range (~300 years old) and Andean Cordilleras …

Evaluation Of Impacts Of Management In An Anthropogenic Peatland Using Field And Remote Sensing Data
Cabezas, J., Galleguillos, M., Valdés, A., Fuentes, J. P., Pérez, C., Perez-Quezada, J. F.

Peatlands are a type of wetland characterized by the accumulation of organic matter, called peat,
and are important carbon reservoirs. In areas with poor drainage, human-induced forest fires and logging can produce flooded conditions and organic matter accumulation, which generates an ecosystem called anthropogenic peatland. Productive …

Seasonal fluxes of carbonyl sulfide in a midlatitude forest
Commane, R.C., Meredith, L. K., Baker, I. T., Berry, J. A., Munger, J. W, Montzka, S. A, Templer, P. H., Juice, S. M., Zahniser, M. S., Wofsy, S. C.

Carbonyl sulfide (OCS), the most abundant sulfur gas in the
atmosphere, has a summer minimum associated with uptake by
vegetation and soils, closely correlated with CO 2 . We report the
first direct measurements to our knowledge of the ecosystem flux
of OCS throughout an annual cycle, at a mixed temperate forest.
The forest …
