Severe droughts occurred in the western United States during recent decades, and continued human greenhouse gas emissions are expected to exacerbate warming and drying in this region. We investigated the role of water availability in shaping forest carbon cycling and morphological traits in the eastern Cascade Mountains, Oregon, focusing on...

Gross primary productivity (GPP) is the largest
and most variable component of the global terrestrial carbon
cycle. Repeatable and accurate monitoring of terrestrial
GPP is therefore critical for quantifying dynamics in
regional-to-global carbon budgets. Remote sensing provides high frequency observations of terrestrial ecosystems and is
widely used to monitor and...

A semi-parametric PAR diffuse radiation model
was developed using commonly measured climatic variables
from 108 site-years of data from 17 AmeriFlux sites. The
model has a logistic form and improves upon previous efforts
using a larger data set and physically viable climate
variables as predictors, including relative humidity, clearness
index,...

Predicting the net effects on the carbon and water
balance of semi-arid forests under future conditions depends
on ecosystem processes responding to changes in
soil and atmospheric drought. Here we apply a combination
of field observations and soil–plant–atmosphere modeling
(SPA) to study carbon and water dynamics in a regenerating
ponderosa...
