Woody Plants Modulate The Temporal Dynamics Of Soil Moisture In A Semi-Arid Mesquite Savanna
Potts, D. L., Scott, R. L., Bayram, S., Carbonara, J.

Climate variability and human activities interact to increase the abundance of woody plants in arid and semi-arid ecosystems worldwide. How woody plants interact with rainfall …

Regional Co2and Latent Heat Surface Fluxes In The Southern Great Plains: Measurements, Modeling, And Scaling
Riley, W. J., Biraud, S. C., Torn, M. S., Fischer, M. L., Billesbach, D. P., Berry, J. A.

Characterizing net ecosystem exchanges (NEE) of CO2 and sensible and latent heat fluxes in heterogeneous landscapes is difficult, yet critical given expected changes in climate and land use. We report here a measurement and modeling study designed to improve our understanding of surface to atmosphere gas exchanges under very heterogeneous …

Stand-level gas-exchange responses to seasonal drought in very young versus old Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest
Wharton, S., Schroeder, M., Bible, K., Falk, M., Paw U, K.T.

This study examines how stand age affects ecosystem mass and energy exchange response to seasonal drought in three adjacent Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) forests. The sites include two early seral (ES) stands (0-15 years old) and an old-growth (OG) (~ 450-500 years old) forest in the Wind River Experiment Forest, …

Physiological Responses Of Red Mangroves To The Climate In The Florida Everglades
Barr, J. G., Fuentes, J. D., Engel, V., Zieman, J. C.

This manuscript reports the findings of physiological studies of red mangrove (Rhizophora mangle L.) conducted from June to August 2001 and from May to June 2003 in the Florida Everglades. In situ physiological measurements were made using environmentally controlled gas exchange systems. The field investigations were carried …

Methane Fluxes During The Initiation Of A Large-Scale Water Table Manipulation Experiment In The Alaskan Arctic Tundra
Zona, D., Oechel, W. C., Kochendorfer, J., Paw U, K. T., Salyuk, A. N., Olivas, P. C., Oberbauer, S. F., Lipson, D. A.

Much of the 191.8 Pg C in the upper 1 m of Arctic soil of Arctic soil organic mater is, or is at risk of, being released to the atmosphere as CO2 and/or CH4. Global warming will further alter the rate of emission of these gases to the atmosphere. Here we quantify the effect of major environmental variables affected …

Soil, Plant, And Transport Influences On Methane In A Subalpine Forest Under High Ultraviolet Irradiance
Bowling, D. R., Miller, J. B., Rhodes, M. E., Burns, S. P., Monson, R. K., Baer, D.

Recent studies have demonstrated direct methane emission from plant foliage under aerobic conditions, particularly under high ultraviolet (UV) irradiance. We examined the potential importance of this phenomenon in a high-elevation conifer forest using micrometeorological techniques. Vertical profiles of methane and carbon dioxide …

Effects Of Seasonal Drought On Net Carbon Dioxide Exchange From A Woody-Plant-Encroached Semiarid Grassland
Scott, R.L., Jenerette, G.D., Potts, D.L., Huxman, T.E.

Annual precipitation in the central and southern warm-desert region of North America is distributed climatologically between summer and winter periods with two prominent dry periods between them. We used energy and carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes from eddy covariance along with standard meteorological and soil moisture measurements …
