Modeling Gross Primary Production of Agro-Forestry Ecosystems by Assimilation of Satellite-Derived Information in a Process-Based Model
In this paper we present results obtained in the framework of a regional-scale analysis of the carbon budget of poplar plantations in Northern Italy. We explored the ability of the process-based model BIOME-BGC to estimate the gross primary production (GPP) using an inverse modeling approach exploiting eddy covariance and satellite data. We firstly present a version of BIOME-BGC coupled with th...
متن کاملModeling the Impact of Black Spruce on the Fire Regime of Alaskan Boreal Forest
In the boreal biome, fire is the major disturbance agent affecting ecosystem change, and fire dynamics will likely change in response to climatic warming. We modified a spatially explicit model of Alaskan subarctic treeline dynamics (ALFRESCO) to simulate boreal vegetation dynamics in interior Alaska. The model is used to investigate the role of black spruce ecosystems in the fire regime of int...
متن کاملModeling soil thermal and carbon dynamics of a fire chronosequence in interior Alaska
[1] In this study, the dynamics of soil thermal, hydrologic, and ecosystem processes were coupled to project how the carbon budgets of boreal forests will respond to changes in atmospheric CO2, climate, and fire disturbance. The ability of the model to simulate gross primary production and ecosystem respiration was verified for a mature black spruce ecosystem in Canada, the age-dependent patter...

Three satellite fire detection models (threshold, contexburned over 2.7 million ha within Alaska (Table 1). Most of the area burned in Alaska is from wildfires caused by tual, and fuel mask) were compared and evaluated using lightning in remote regions. Because of the remoteness National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administraand large area of Alaska, a timely and cost-effective tion (NOAA)-11...
متن کاملGlobal Validation of a Process-Based Model on Vegetation Gross Primary Production Using Eddy Covariance Observations
Gross Primary Production (GPP) is the largest flux in the global carbon cycle. However, large uncertainties in current global estimations persist. In this study, we examined the performance of a process-based model (Integrated BIosphere Simulator, IBIS) at 62 eddy covariance sites around the world. Our results indicated that the IBIS model explained 60% of the observed variation in daily GPP at...
