The Terrestrial Carbon Cycle: Managing Forest Ecosystems
The accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere due to fossil fuel use, deforestation and other anthropogenic sources is changing the global climate (Harries et al. 2001; IPCC 2002). Current understanding of the global carbon cycle suggests that managing forests and agricultural lands to increase the sequestration of greenhouse gases (GHG) provide credible policy options (Dixon and Turner 1991, Winju...
متن کاملAre Forest Functions a Useful Tool for Multi-objective Forest Management Planning? Experiences from Slovenia

متن کاملModelling forest ecosystems: the Edinburgh Forest Model
Reasons for building an ecosystem model are discussed, stressing the importance of objectives. A model is required for any research programme aiming to take a firm grasp of forest responses. The Edinburgh Forest Model (EFM) is outlined. This is a standard model of the genre, taking account of pools and fluxes of carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and water. It comprises tree, soil and water submodels. Th...

متن کاملForest Ecosystems: Nutrient Cycling
Nutrients are elements or compounds that are essential for the growth and survival of plants. Plants require large amounts of nutrients such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and magnesium (Mg), but only small amounts of others such as boron (B), manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn) and chlorine (Cl) (micronutrients)...
