Modelling post-fire vegetation recovery in PortugalBiogeosciences - Tập 8 Số 12 - Trang 3593-3607
Ana Bastos, Célia M. Gouveia, Carlos C. DaCamara, Ricardo M. Trigo
Abstract. Wildfires in Mediterranean Europe have been increasing in number and extension over the last decades and constitute one of the major disturbances of these ecosystems. Portugal is the country with more burnt area in the last decade and the years of 2003 and 2005 were particularly devastating, the total burned areas of 425 000 and 338 000 ha being several times higher than the corr...... hiện toàn bộ
Processes of ammonia air–surface exchange in a fertilized <i>Zea mays</i> canopyBiogeosciences - Tập 10 Số 2 - Trang 981-998

Abstract. Recent incorporation of coupled soil biogeochemical and bi-directional NH3 air–surface exchange algorithms into regional air quality models holds promise for further reducing uncertainty in estimates of NH3 emissions from fertilized soils. While this represents a significant advancement over previous approaches, the evaluation and improvement of such modeling systems for fertiliz...... hiện toàn bộ
Technical Note: Large overestimation of <i>p</i>CO<sub>2</sub> calculated from pH and alkalinity in acidic, organic-rich freshwatersBiogeosciences - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 67-78
Gwénaël Abril, Steven Bouillon, François Darchambeau, Cristian R. Teodoru, Trent R. Marwick, F. Tamooh, Fred Omengo, Naomi Geeraert, Loris Deirmendjian, Pierre Polsenaere, Alberto Borges
Abstract. Inland waters have been recognized as a significant source of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere at the global scale. Fluxes of CO2 between aquatic systems and the atmosphere are calculated from the gas transfer velocity and the water–air gradient of the partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2). Currently, direct measurements of water pCO2 remain scarce in freshwaters, and most publish...... hiện toàn bộ
Nitrogen isotopes in bulk marine sediment: linking seafloor observations with subseafloor recordsBiogeosciences - Tập 10 Số 1 - Trang 101-118
Jan‐Erik Tesdal, Eric D. Galbraith, Markus Kienast
Abstract. The stable isotopes of nitrogen offer a unique perspective on changes in the nitrogen cycle, past and present. However, the presence of multiple forms of nitrogen in marine sediments can complicate the interpretation of bulk nitrogen isotope measurements. Although the large-scale global patterns of seafloor δ15N have been shown to match process-based expectations, small-scale het...... hiện toàn bộ

Are seamounts refuge areas for fauna from polymetallic nodule fields?Biogeosciences - Tập 17 Số 9 - Trang 2657-2680
Daphné Cuvelier, Pedro A. Ribeiro, Sofia P. Ramalho, Daniel Kersken, Pedro Martínez Arbizu, Ana Colaço
Abstract. Seamounts are abundant and prominent features on the deep-sea floor and
intersperse with the nodule fields of the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone
(CCZ). There is a particular interest in characterising the fauna inhabiting
seamounts in the CCZ because they are the only other ecosystem in the region
to provide hard substrata besides the abundant nodules on the soft-sediment
abyss...... hiện toàn bộ
A strong CO<sub>2</sub> sink enhanced by eutrophication in a tropical coastal embayment (Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)Biogeosciences - Tập 12 Số 20 - Trang 6125-6146
Luiz C. Cotovicz, Bastiaan Knoppers, Nilva Brandini, Suzan J. Costa Santos, Gwénaël Abril
Abstract. In contrast to its small surface area, the coastal zone plays a disproportionate role in the global carbon cycle. Carbon production, transformation, emission and burial rates at the land–ocean interface are significant at the global scale but still poorly known, especially in tropical regions. Surface water pCO2 and ancillary parameters were monitored during nine field campaigns ...... hiện toàn bộ
An evaluation of ocean color model estimates of marine primary productivity in coastal and pelagic regions across the globeBiogeosciences - Tập 8 Số 2 - Trang 489-503
V. S. Saba, Marjorie A. M. Friedrichs, David Antoine, Richard A. Armstrong, I. Asanuma, M. Behrenfeld, Áurea Maria Ciotti, Mark Dowell, N. Hoepffner, Kimberly J.W. Hyde, Joji Ishizaka, T. Kameda, J. Marra, F. Mélin, A. Morel, J. O'Reilly, M. Scardi, W. O. Smith, Tim Smyth, S. Tang, Julia Uitz, K. Waters, Toby K. Westberry
Abstract. Nearly half of the earth's photosynthetically fixed carbon derives from the oceans. To determine global and region specific rates, we rely on models that estimate marine net primary productivity (NPP) thus it is essential that these models are evaluated to determine their accuracy. Here we assessed the skill of 21 ocean color models by comparing their estimates of depth-integrate...... hiện toàn bộ
