N₂-Fixing Red Alder Indirectly Accelerates Ecosystem Nitrogen Cycling

Creator:: Perakis, Steven S., Matkins, Joselin J., and Hibbs, David E.
Abstract:: Symbiotic N₂-fixing tree species can accelerate ecosystem N dynamics through decomposition feedbacks via both direct and indirect pathways. Direct pathways include the production of readily decomposed leaf litter and increased N supply to decomposers, whereas indirect pathways include increased tissue N and altered detrital dynamics of non-fixing vegetation. To evaluate...

Collaborating for Healthy Forests and Communities: A Guide for Building Partnerships Among Diverse Interests

Creator:: Shindler, Bruce, Gordon, Ryan, McCaffrey, Sarah, and Toman, Eric
Abstract:: There are many reasons for building an alliance among agencies and citizens in forest and rangeland communities. In the big picture, the purpose is primarily to reach decisions that are objectively better. Essentially, the quality of decisions is improved by a multi-agency effort that includes a role for citizens and...

Remote sensing of tropical ecosystems: Atmospheric correction and cloud masking matter

Creator:: Hilker, Thomas, Lyapustin, Alexei I., Tucker, Compton J., Sellers, Piers J., Hall, Forrest G., and Wang, Yujie
Abstract:: Tropical rainforests are significant contributors to the global cycles of energy, water and carbon. As a result, monitoring of the vegetation status over regions such as Amazônia has been a long standing interest of Earth scientists trying to determine the effect of climate change and anthropogenic disturbance on the tropical...

Crustacean and aquatic insect assemblages in the Mediterranean coastal ecosystems of Emporda wetlands (NE Iberian peninsula)

Creator:: Martinoy, Monica, Boix, Dani, Sala, Jordi, Gascon, Stephanie, Gifre, Jaume, Argerich, Alba, de la Barrera, Ricard, Brucet, Sandra, Badosa, Anna, Lopez-Flores, Rocio, Mendez, Montserrat, Utge, Josep Maria, and Quintana, Xavier D.
Abstract:: Coastal wetlands are characterized by high biodiversity, which is one of the main criteria considered when establishing protection policies or when proposing adequate management actions. In this study, the crustacean and aquatic insect composition of the Emporda wetlands is described. These two faunal groups contribute highly to the total biodiversity...

Reconciling estimates of the contemporary North American carbon balance among terrestrial biosphere models, atmospheric inversions, and a new approach for estimating net ecosystem exchange from inventory-based data

Creator:: Hayes, Daniel J., Turner, David P., Stinson, Graham, McGuire, A. David, Wei, Yaxing, West, Tristram O., Heath, Linda S., de Jong, Bernardus, McConkey, Brian G., Birdsey, Richard A., Kurz, Werner A., Jacobson, Andrew R., Huntzinger, Deborah N., Pan, Yude, Post, W. Mac, and Cook, Robert B.
Abstract:: We develop an approach for estimating net ecosystem exchange (NEE) using inventory-based information over North America (NA) for a recent 7-year period (ca. 2000–2006). The approach notably retains information on the spatial distribution of NEE, or the vertical exchange between land and atmosphere of all non-fossil fuel sources and sinks...

The growing season carbon balance of a sub-boreal clearcut 5 years after harvesting using two independent approaches to measure ecosystem CO₂ flux

Creator:: Pypker, Thomas G. and Fredeen, Arthur L.
Abstract:: From 27 June to 3 September 1999, CO2 fluxes from a 5-year-old, 84.15-ha vegetated clearcut in sub-boreal British Columbia were measured using a Bowen ratio energy balance (BREB) system and a second approach (the component model) that was based on scaled up CO2-flux measurements from belowground and plants (spruce seedlings...

Buffer strips for stream temperature control

Creator:: Brazier, Jon Roger, Brown, George Wallace, 1939-, and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: During clearcut logging, complete removal of the forest canopy and the shade it provides to small streams can cause large increases in water temperature. Such increases in temperature can be prevented if buffer strips of vegetation are left along the stream to provide shade. The purposes of this paper are...

Truth to Nature: The Art and Ecology of Hudson River School Painting

Creator:: Loeb, Harper
Abstract:: Beginning with the inception of American art history as a formal discipline in the 1940s, the dominant mode of interpreting nineteenth-century American landscape painting has been to view aspects of the landscape as symbols for grand cultural, religious, national, and moral narratives. While this method of interpretation highlights some key...
