  1. 1. Comparison of soil CO2 efflux between different surface covers on a clear-cut and forest stand in southern Sweden, Hyltemossa

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Pamela Huskin Okinedo; [2020]
    Keywords : Soil CO2 efflux; Soil respiration; Soil moisture; Soil temperature; Clear-cut; Forest stand; Net ecosystem exchange; Photosynthetically active radiation; Carbon.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Large amounts of carbon in the terrestrial biosphere are stored in forest ecosystems and its soil. Once the forest ecosystem is disturbed the release of this carbon can drive positive feedback to global warming. Humans impact the forest ecosystem through clear-cutting for wood production and other commercial purposes. READ MORE

  2. 2. The temporal and spatial variability of soil respiration in boreal forests : a case study of Norunda forest, Central Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Elisabeth Vogel; [2013]
    Keywords : boreal forests; soil respiration; carbon dioxide exchange; automatic chamber measurements; Eddy covariance; Wavelet analysis; Norunda; physical geography and ecosystem analysis; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Previous studies have shown that, contrary to expectations, the boreal forest at the Norunda research site in central Sweden is acting as a carbon source. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the spatial and temporal variability of soil carbon dioxide (CO2) efflux (FSoil) in order to provide insights into its role for the net carbon balance of this forest.

    Keywords : soil CO2 efflux; spatial variation; depth of the soil; humus thickness; micro topography; stand and forest floor characteristics; mark-CO2-utflöde; rumslig variation; markdjup; humustjocklek; mikrotopografi; trädbestånd; skogsmarkskaraktäristik; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : This study investigates the spatial variation in soil carbon dioxide (CO2) efflux in a boreal mixed forest mainly dominated by Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies L.) in the ADVEX expermental site in Norunda, in central Sweden. READ MORE
