Wofsy, S.C., Frolking, S.E., Wang, S., Clein, J.S., McGuire, A.D., Potter, C.S., Goulden, M.L., Chen, J.M., Grant, R.F., Nikolov, N.T., Amthor, J.S., Kimball, J.S., King, A.W.
Nine ecosystem process models were used to predict CO2 and water vapor exchanges by a 150-year-old black spruce forest in central Canada during 1994-1996 to evaluate and improve the models. Three models had hourly time steps, five had daily time steps, and one had monthly time steps. Model input...
