Legacy effects from historical grazing enhanced carbon sequestration in a desert steppe
Legacy effects are the ecological inheritances produced by preceding actions, which have been underlined more on agricultural land use, wildfire, invasive and removal species, forest management, and extreme climates in previous research; however, very few studies have shown concern toward the grazing legacy effects on key ecosystem functions such as the carbon cycle. A nested random block desig...
متن کاملCarbon and Water Fluxes in a Drained Coastal Clearcut
The effects of clear-cutting and cultivating for timber on ecosystem carbon and water fluxes were evaluated by comparative measurements of two drained coastal wetland systems in the North Carolina coastal plain. Measurements were conducted from January through September, 2005 in a recent clearcut (CC) of native hardwoods and a loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) plantation (LP) that represent a chronos...
متن کاملEcosystem CO 2 flux over two growing seasons for a sub - Boreal clearcut 5 and 6 years after harvest
We measured the ecosystem-level growing season CO2 fluxes for a 6-year-old vegetated sub-Boreal clearcut from 24 May to 20 September 2000, and compared the results to CO2 fluxes from the same clearcut in 1999 (27 June–3 September). Two independent approaches were used to measure ecosystem CO2 flux for both years. A Bowen ratio energy balance (BREB) method was contrasted with a second approach u...
متن کاملAdvances in upscaling of eddy covariance measurements of carbon and water fluxes
[1] Eddy covariance flux towers provide continuous measurements of ecosystem-level net exchange of carbon, water, energy, and other trace gases between land surface and the atmosphere. The upscaling of flux observations from towers to broad regions provides a new and independent approach for quantifying these fluxes over regions, continents, or the globe. The seven contributions of this special...
متن کاملForest recovery patterns in response to divergent disturbance regimes in the Border Lakes region of Minnesota (USA) and Ontario (Canada)
The persistence of landscape-scale disturbance legacies in forested ecosystems depends in part on the nature and strength of feedback among disturbances, their effects, and subsequent recovery processes such as tree regeneration and canopy closure. We investigated factors affecting forest recovery rates over a 25-year time period in a large (6 million ha) landscape where geopolitical boundaries...
