  5. 24. Simulation of Net Primary Production (NPP) of Picea abies in southern Sweden : an analysis based on three forest growth models

    University essay from SLU/Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre

    Author : Narayanan Subramanian; [2010]
    Keywords : climate change; modeling; boreal; Elevated temperature increased CO2-concentrations;

    Abstract : The potential Net Primary Production (NPP) under climate change was simulated by using twoprocess based growth models, 3-PG and BIOMASS. Both models were run for two climatescenarios A2 and B2 during the period 2071-2100 and compared with simulations of referenceclimate (1961-1990). READ MORE
