Evaluating the impacts of climate variability and disturbance regimes on the historic carbon budget of a forest landscape

Landscape-level understanding of forest carbon (C) dynamics is required to quantify the net contribution of forest biomes to the global C cycle and to help forest managers to understand the impacts of forest management activities on the C sequestration in forests. In this study, the effects of interannual climate variability, carbon dioxide (CO2) fertilization, and disturbance regimes on the C dynamics of an old-growth Pacific Northwest …
