Boreal forest CO2 exchange and evapotranspiration predicted by nine ecosystem process models: Intermodel comparisons and relationships to field measurements [PDF]
, 2001 Nine ecosystem process models were used to predict CO2 and water vapor exchanges by a 150-year-old black spruce forest in central Canada during 1994–1996 to evaluate and improve the models.

Soil Respiration Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Shrub Ecosystem on the Loess Plateau
Renmin Zhujiang, 2022 Soil respiration is one of the main sources of atmospheric carbon.In recent years,the vegetation cover of the Loess Plateau has changed significantly.To explore the change rules and influencing factors of soil respiration in the shrub ecosystem,this ...

Global variability of belowground autotrophic respiration in terrestrial ecosystems [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2019 Abstract. Belowground autotrophic respiration (RA) is one of the largest, but highly uncertain carbon flux components in terrestrial ecosystems. It has not been explored globally before and still acted as a “black box” in global carbon cycling. Such progress and uncertainty motivate a development of global RA dataset and understand its spatial and ...

Effects of trophic status, water level, and temperature on shallow lake metabolism and metabolic balance: A standardized pan‐European mesocosm experiment [PDF]
, 2018 Important drivers of gross primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (ER) in lakes are temperature, nutrients, and light availability, which are predicted to be affected by climate change.
