Some essential features of forest hydrologic cycles are based on observations of the soil
water balance. However, measurements of soil water dynamics in subtropical forests have …

The global climate change-induced advanced spring green-up dates (GUDs) of vegetation
in the past decades have been well documented. However, anthropogenic effects on GUDs …

The gross primary production (GPP) is important for regulating the global carbon cycle and
climate change. Recent studies have shown that sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) …

Understanding feedbacks of ecosystem carbon sequestration to climate change is an urgent
step in develo** future ecosystem models. Using 187 site-years of flux data observed at …

Species-rich subtropical forests have high carbon sequestration capacity and play important
roles in regional and global carbon regulation and climate changes. A timely investigation of …

Although litterfall respiration (RL) is a key process of soil carbon dynamics in forests, factors
that drive RL and its contribution to soil respiration (RS) have not been sufficiently studied …

Vegetation phenology is an integrated indicator of vegetation growth and development in
response to climate, and it is one of the important variables regulating carbon flux in forest …

The subtropical forest transition zone in southern China is a typical transition zone with high
coverage and diverse vegetation. Projected climate change will affect physiological …

The inter-annual variability (IAV) of net ecosystem productivity (NEP) may be caused by both
climatic factors and ecosystem responses. In this study, we used eddy covariance (EC) …

Understanding the responses of canopy conductance (gc) to environmental factors would
help ecologists to obtain further insight into the carbon and water exchange processes and …
