Quantifying Advective and Nonstationary Effects on Eddy Fluxes in the Ameriflux Network, (Final Report).

摘要

Our goal was to study the flows within and above of a forested area and assess the degree to which horizontal subcanopy motions transport significant amounts of CO2. This process can explain why ecosystem respiration appears to be underestimated on calm nights. It is essential to understand the physical and biological mechanisms that determine relevant processes that occur on these suspect nights.
