Oak forest carbon and water simulations: model intercomparisons and evaluations against independent data
Download2004
Baldocchi, D.D., Luo, Y., Grant, R.F., Hui, D., Amthor, J.S., Sun, G., Wullschleger, S.D., King, A.W., Johnson, D.W., Hanson, P.J., Williams, M., Thornton, P.E., Hartley, A., Kimball, J.S., Cushman, R.M., Hunt Jr., E.R., McNulty, S.G., Wang, S., Wilson, K.B.
Models represent our primary method for integration of small-scale, process-level phenomena into a comprehensive description of forest-stand or ecosystem function. They also represent a key method for testing hypotheses about the response of forest ecosystems to multiple changing environmental...

Optimal forest harvest age considering carbon sequestration in multiple carbon pools: A comparative statics analysis
Download2012
Armstrong, Glen W, Asante, Patrick
We present an analytical model for determination of the economically optimal harvest age of a forest stand considering timber value, and the value of carbon fluxes in living biomass, dead organic matter, and wood products pools. Through comparative statics analysis, we find that consideration of...

Luckert, Martin K., Armstrong, Glen W., Adamowicz, Wiktor L., Anderson, Jay A.
Previous studies suggest that management intensity zoning systems, such as the triad approach, could allow Canada’s forest industry to maintain or increase timber harvest levels while simultaneously reducing its environmental impact. In most such studies, the zones are exogenously specified. In...

Abstract: The classical environmental control model assumes that species distribution is determined by the spatial variation of underlying habitat conditions. This niche-based model has recently been challenged by the neutral theory of biodiversity which assumes that ecological drift is a key...

We develop and test new models that unify the mathematical relationships among the abundance of a species, the spatial dispersion of the species, the number of patches occupied by the species, the edge length of the occupied patches, and the scale on which the distribution of species is mapped....

Pit membrane structure is highly variable and accounts for a major resistance to water flow through tracheid pits in stems and roots of two boreal conifer species

Schulte, P.J., Schoonmaker, A.L. , Hacke, U.G.
The flow of xylem sap in conifers is strongly dependent on the presence of a low resistance path through bordered pits, particularly through the pores present in the margo of the pit membrane. A computational fluid dynamics approach was taken, solving the Navier–Stokes equation for models based...
