Ecosystem carbon 7 dioxide fluxes after disturbance in forests of North America [PDF]
Disturbances are important for renewal of North American forests. Here we summarize more than 180 site years of eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide flux made at forest chronosequences in North America. The disturbances included stand-replacing
