Terrestrial Carbon Cycle: Climate Relations in Eight CMIP5 Earth System Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ight Earth System Models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) are evaluated, focusing on both the net carbon dioxide flux and its components and their relation with climatic variables (temperature, ...
Scaling Isoprene Fluxes from Leaves to Canopies: Test Cases over a Boreal Aspen and a Mixed Species Temperate Forest
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The rate at which isoprene is emitted by a forest depends on an array of environmental variables, the forest?s biomass, and its species composition. At present it is unclear whether errors in canopy-scale and process-level ...
Snow Temperature Changes within a Seasonal Snowpack and Their Relationship to Turbulent Fluxes of Sensible and Latent Heat
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nowpack temperatures from a subalpine forest below Niwot Ridge, Colorado, are examined with respect to atmospheric conditions and the 30-min above-canopy and subcanopy eddy covariance fluxes of sensible Qh and latent Qe ...
A Multiscale and Multidisciplinary Investigation Of Ecosystem–Atmosphere CO2 Exchange Over the Rocky Mountains of Colorado
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A significant fraction of Earth consists of mountainous terrain. However, the question of how to monitor the surface?atmosphere carbon exchange over complex terrain has not been fully explored. This article reports on ...
