New evidence for age-related decline in carbon sinks in intact boreal forests
As climate change accelerates, understanding the carbon dynamics of intact forests is critical to climate forecasting, mitigation, and adaptation, but significant uncertainties persist regarding the long-term carbon balance of aging boreal forests. Here,

Controls on carbon and energy exchange by a black spruce - moss ecosystem: Testing the mathematical model Ecosys with data from the BOREAS experiment [PDF]
Stomatal limitations to mass and energy exchange over boreal black spruce forests may be caused by low needle N concentrations that limit CO2 fixation rates.

Estimating daily forest carbon fluxes using a combination of ground and remotely sensed data [PDF]
Several studies have demonstrated that Monteith’s approach can efficiently predict forest gross primary production (GPP), while the modeling of net ecosystem production (NEP) is more critical, requiring the additional simulation of forest respirations ...

Forest Net Primary Production Resistance Across a Gradient of Moderate Disturbance [PDF]
The global carbon (C) balance is vulnerable to disturbances that alter terrestrial C uptake and loss. Moderate disturbances that kill or defoliate only a subset of canopy trees such as insect defoliation, drought, and age-related senescence are ...
