The methodology, implementation, and analysis of the isotopic composition of soil respired CO₂ in forest ecological research

Creator:

Kayler, Zachary Eric

Abstract:

Soils are the largest terrestrial pool of carbon, therefore it is critical to understand what controls soil carbon efflux to the atmosphere in light of current climate uncertainty. The primary efflux of carbon from soil is soil respiration which is typically categorized into autotrophic and heterotrophic respiration. These two components...

Method report for total organic carbon measurements GEOSECS

Creator:

Gordon, Louis Irwin, 1928-, Barstow, L., Lilley, M., Seifert, E. A., and Park, P. K.

Abstract:

The analytical method employed for the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) project in the Geochemical Ocean Sections Study (GEOSECS) is described in detail. The method generally follows that of Menzel and Vaccaro as modified by several subsequent workers including the GEOSECS group at Oregon State University which carried out the TOC...
