Battaglia, Mike, Rhoades, Chuck, Rocca, Monique E., Ryan, Michael G.

Recent large-scale, severe wildfires in the western United States have prompted extensive fuel treatment programs to reduce potential wildfire size and severity. Often, unmerchantable material is...

Wood CO2 efflux and foliar respiration for Eucalyptus in Hawaii and Brazil (2009)

Ryan, Michael G., Cavaleri, Molly A., Almeida, Auro C., Penchel, Ricardo, Senock, Randy S., Luiz Stape, José

We measured CO2 efflux from wood for Eucalyptus in Hawaii for 7 years and compared these measurements with those on three- and four-and-a-half-year-old Eucalyptus in Brazil. In Hawaii, CO2 efflux...

Aboveground sink strength in forests controls the allocation of carbon below ground and its [CO2]-induced enhancement

Palmroth, Sari, Oren, Ram, McCarthy, Heather R., Johnsen, Kurt H., Finzi, Adrien C., Butnor, John R., ...

The partitioning among carbon (C) pools of the extra C captured under elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]) determines the enhancement in C sequestration, yet no clear partitioning rules...
