Boreal Forest Carbon Balance Studies
Principal Investigator: Layden, Ronald E.
Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: The objective of this project is to increase the understanding of taiga carbon balance of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and predict into the future the impacts of climate warming on these systems. The exchange of carbon gases between the taiga and atmosphere is a significant component of the carbon balance and is dependent upon vegetation cover. The description below for the tundra site at...


Climate Change Impacts on Canadian Arctic Tundra Ecosystems: Interdisciplinary and Multi-scale Assessments
Principal Investigator: Coxson, Darwyn S
Licensed Year(s): 2008 2007
Summary: The objective of this research is to study how northern soils in close proximity (geospatially linked soils) cycle nitrogen and carbon and produce greenhouse gases. Describing these links will allow forecasting on how the soils respond to climate change. Three transects with 31 sampling locations will be set up. At each location a Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) probe and thermocouple will be i...
