In many parts of the world forest disturbance regimes have intensified recently, and future
climatic changes are expected to amplify this development further in the coming decades …

Canada's managed boreal forest, 54% of the nation's total boreal forest area, stores 28 Pg
carbon (C) in biomass, dead organic matter, and soil pools. The net C balance is dominated …

Large datasets of greenhouse gas and energy surface-atmosphere fluxes measured with
the eddy-covariance technique (eg, FLUXNET2015, AmeriFlux BASE) are widely used to …

Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) brings major advancements in measuring
terrestrial photosynthesis. Several recent studies have evaluated the potential of SIF …

The application of the eddy covariance flux method to measure fluxes of trace gas and
energy between ecosystems and the atmosphere has exploded over the past 25 years. This …

AmeriFlux scientists were early adopters of a network-enabled approach to ecosystem
science that continues to transform the study of land-atmosphere interactions. In the 20 …

Projected changes in temperature and drought regime are likely to reduce carbon (C)
storage in forests, thereby amplifying rates of climate change. While such reductions are …

Understanding the dynamics and underlying mechanism of carbon exchange between
terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere is one of the key issues in global change …

Atmospheric pollutants have both beneficial and detrimental effects on carbon uptake by
land ecosystems. Surface ozone (O 3) damages leaf photosynthesis by oxidizing plant cells …

For over two decades, the AmeriFlux network has quantified the breathing of the biosphere,
as defined by measuring the flux densities of carbon dioxide and water vapor exchange …
