Variability in the Net Ecosystem Productivity (NEP) of Seaweed Farms

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The important role of vegetated ecosystems in the sequestration of carbon has gained strong interest across a wide variety of disciplines. With evidence growing of the potential for macroalgae ecosystems to capture carbon, there is burgeoning interest in

Nitrogen saturation and net ecosystem production [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2008
Magnani et al. found that net carbon (C) sequestration of temperate and boreal forests is clearly driven by nitrogen (N) deposition. From the positive relationship between average net ecosystem production (NEP) and wet N deposition, the authors further conclude that "no signs of N saturation were apparent" in the studied forests and that this is ...

NET ECOSYSTEM PRODUCTION: A COMPREHENSIVE MEASURE OF NET CARBON ACCUMULATION BY ECOSYSTEMS [PDF]

open access: yesEcological Applications, 2002
The conceptual framework used by ecologists and biogeochemists must allow for accurate and clearly defined comparisons of carbon fluxes made with disparate techniques across a spectrum of temporal and spatial scales. Consistent with usage over the past four decades, we define “net ecosystem production” (NEP) as the net carbon accumulation by ecosystems.

Convergence of potential net ecosystem production among contrasting C3grasslands [PDF]

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2013
AbstractMetabolic theory and body size constraints on biomass production and decomposition suggest that differences in the intrinsic potential net ecosystem production (NEPPOT) should be small among contrasting C3grasslands and therefore unable to explain the wide range in the annual apparent net ecosystem production (NEPAPP) reported by previous ...

Seasonal carryover of water and effects on carbon dynamics in a dryland ecosystem

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Net primary productivity in arid and semiarid regions is controlled by water availability for which rainfall has been a commonly used proxy at annual scales.

Spatial variations in terrestrial net ecosystem productivity and its local indicators [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2020
Multiple lines of evidence have demonstrated the persistence of global land carbon (C) sink during the past several decades. However, both annual net ecosystem productivity (NEP) and its inter-annual variation (IAVNEP) keep varying over space.

Empirical Models of Respiration and Net Ecosystem Productivity and Their Applications in a Subtropical Coniferous Plantation in China

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Net ecosystem exchange (NEE), solar radiation (including photosynthetically active radiation PAR), and meteorological parameters were measured in a subtropical coniferous plantation in China during 2013–2016.

Net ecosystem productivity, net primary productivity and ecosystem carbon sequestration in a Pinus radiata plantation subject to soil water deficit [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 1998
Tree carbon (C) uptake (net primary productivity excluding fine root turnover, NPP') in a New Zealand Pinus radiata D. Don plantation (42 degrees 52' S, 172 degrees 45' E) growing in a region subject to summer soil water deficit was investigated jointly with canopy assimilation (A(c)) and ecosystem-atmosphere C exchange rate (net ecosystem productivity,

Drivers of carbon flux in drip irrigation maize fields in northwest China

open access: yesCarbon Balance and Management, 2021
Background Under the escalating threat to sustainable development from the global increase in carbon dioxide concentrations, the variations in carbon flux in the farmland ecosystem and their influencing factors have attracted global attention.
