The Unabated Atmospheric Carbon Losses In A Drowning Wetland Forest Of North Carolina: A Point Of No Return?
Aguilos, M., Warr, I., Irving, M., Gregg, O., Grady, S., Peele, T., Noormets, A., Sun, G., Liu, N., McNulty, S., Pettay, F., Bhattacharya, S., Penney, S., Kerrigan, M., Yang, L., Mitra, B., Prajapati, P., Minick, K., King, J.

Coastal wetlands provide the unique biogeochemical functions of storing a large fraction of the terrestrial carbon (C) pool and being among the most productive ecosystems in the world. However, coastal wetlands face numerous natural and anthropogenic disturbances that threaten their ecological integrity and C storage potential. To …

Plant functional diversity influences water and carbon fluxes and their use efficiencies in native and disturbed dryland ecosystems
Castellanos, A. E., C. Hinojo-Hinojo, J. C. Rodríguez, J. R. Romo-Leon, B. P. Wilcox, J. A. Biederman, J. Peñuelas

Vegetation is changing rapidly in dryland ecosystems, but critical gaps remain in understanding the long-term fluxes of carbon (C) and water. We used 6 years of data from two adjacent eddy covariance sites in the Sonoran Desert, a species-rich woody C3 native shrubland and a species-poor C4 shrubland converted to buffelgrass savanna. …

Effects Of Land-Use Change And Drought On Decadal Evapotranspiration And Water Balance Of Natural And Managed Forested Wetlands Along The Southeastern Us Lower Coastal Plain
Aguilos, M., Sun, G., Noormets, A., Domec, J., McNulty, S., Gavazzi, M., Minick, K., Mitra, B., Prajapati, P., Yang, Y., King, J.

Forested wetlands are important in regulating regional hydrology and climate. However, long-term studies on the hydrologic impacts of converting natural forested wetlands to pine plantations are rare for the southern US. From 2005-2018, we quantified water cycling in two post-harvest and newly-planted loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) …

Carbon Dynamics And Soil Greenhouse Fluxes In A Florida’S Native Rangeland Before And After Fire
Bracho, R., Silveira, M. L., Boughton, R., Sanchez, J. M., Kohmann, M. M., Brandani, C. B., Celis, G.

Grazing lands, including the native rangelands, cover an extensive area of the southeastern United States, representing an important component of the carbon balance for the region. In Florida, native rangelands extend over 3.1 Mha, experiencing a natural fire frequency between 2 – 5 years and a strong climatic variability. Management …

An improved practical approach for estimating catchment‐scale response functions through wavelet analysis
Dwivedi, R., Eastoe, C., Knowles, J. F., Hamann, L., Meixner, T., Ferre, P.A., Castro, C., Wright, W.E., Niu, G.-Y., Minor, R., Barron-Gafford, G. A., Abramson, N., Mitra, B., Papuga, S.A., Stanley, M., Chorover, J.

Catchment‐scale response functions, such as transit time distribution (TTD) and evapotranspiration time distribution (ETTD), are considered fundamental descriptors of a catchment’s hydrologic and ecohydrologic responses to spatially and temporally varying precipitation inputs. Yet, estimating these functions is challenging, especially …

Accounting for canopy structure improves hyperspectral radiative transfer and sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence representations in a new generation Earth System model
Braghiere,R.K., Wang,Y., Doughty,R., Sousa,D., Magney,T., Widlowski,J.-L., Longo,M., Bloom,A.A., Worden,J., Gentine,P., Frankenberg,C.

Three-dimensional (3D) vegetation canopy structure plays an important role in the way radiation interacts with the land surface. Accurately representing this process in Earth System models (ESMs) is crucial for the modeling of the global carbon, energy, and water cycles and hence future climate projections. Despite the importance …

Spring Onsets Of A Young Forest In Interior Alaska Determined Based On Time‑Lapse Camera And Eddy Covariance Measurements
KAWASHIMA, S., UEYAMA, M., OKAMURA, M., HARAZONO, Y., IWATA, H., KOBAYASHI, H.

Spring phenology is essential in modeling the carbon balance of high‑latitude ecosystems and is possibly sensitive to climate change. In the present study, we evaluated the onset of the growing season for three species (paper birch, bog blueberry, and bog Labrador tea) in interior Alaska from 2012 to 2019 using photos taken using …
