Functional profiles of soil microbial communities in second-growth Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:

McGinnis, Megan L.

Abstract:

Forests are one of the largest repositories of terrestrial C. Understanding factors that drive organic matter transformations and nutrient efflux from these systems is therefore highly important. Temperate forests are of particular significance due to the large fraction of C that is stored below ground in the soil. Characterizing nutrient...

Live-tree carbon in the Pacific Northwest : estimates and uncertainties

Creator:

Melson, Susanna L.

Abstract:

Concentration of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere has increased over the past 150 years. Because CO₂ is one of a number of radiatively active gases, there is concern that global temperatures will rise and climatic conditions will change. Recent research indicates northern hemisphere forests may currently be accumulating carbon...

Carbon storage in a Pacific Northwest conifer forest ecosystem : a chronosequence approach

Creator:

Janisch, Jack E.

Abstract:

As concern over global warming intensifies, sequestration and storage of atmospheric CO2 has become an important scientific and policy issue. Confusion persists, however, over interpretation of forest carbon (C) source-sink dynamics, in part because conclusions drawn depend on temporal and spatial scales of analysis (e.g. day-week scale vs. successional-scale), type...
