I studied the water relations traits, twig conductivity, C'3 isotopic composition,
and wood density of three conifer and five angiosperm species in western Oregon. This
study took place from spring 2002 to fall 2003 on four sites. Species were selected to
represent the diversity of drought tolerance of woody plants...
We analyzed 7 years (2002–2008) of micrometeorological and concurrent biological
observations of carbon and water fluxes at a mature ponderosa pine forest in central
Oregon in a semiarid climate. We sought to evaluate the extent that gross primary
productivity, net ecosystem exchange, ecosystem respiration, net primary productivity, net
ecosystem productivity,...
