Analysis of the regional carbon balance of Pacific Northwest forests under changing climate, disturbance, and management for bioenergy

Creator:

Hudiburg, Tara W.

Abstract:

Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have been steadily increasing from anthropogenic energy production, development and use. Carbon cycling in the terrestrial biosphere, particularly forest ecosystems, has an important role in regulating atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide. US West coast forest management policies are being developed to implement forest bioenergy production while...

Environmental variability and system heterogeneity in terrestrial biogeochemical models

Creator:

Sierra, Carlos Alberto

Abstract:

Ecosystems are highly heterogeneous systems subjected to important levels of environmental variability; however, it is common in terrestrial biogeochemical models to assume homogeneous properties of the elements of the system or constant environmental conditions. For some processes, heterogeneity in these models is treated very simplistically, but there is not much...
