Canopy scale CO2 exchange and productivity of transplanted paddy and direct seeded rainfed rice production systems in S. Korea
(Elsevier, 2016)Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a primary food crop that supports more than half the world population. Paddy rice accounts for more than 75% of the total global rice production but requires large amounts of water for irrigation. ... -
Higher assimilation than respiration sensitivity to drought for a desert ecosystem in Central Asia
(Elsevier, 2017)Responses of ecosystem assimilation and respiration to global climate change vary considerably among terrestrial ecosystems constrained by both biotic and abiotic factors. In this study, net CO2 exchange between ecosystem ... -
Patterns of CO2 exchange and productivity of the herbaceous vegetation and trees in a humid savanna in western Kenya
(Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht, 2015)Factors governing the dynamics between woody and herbaceous vegetation in the savanna are of ecological interest since they determine ecosystem productivity and stability. Field measurements were conducted in a humid savanna ... -
Supplement understanding of the relative importance of biophysical factors in determination of photosynthetic capacity and photosynthetic productivity in rice ecosystems
(Elsevier, 2016)Extensive variation in gross primary production (GPP) among growing seasons in rice ecosystems, which has previously been reported, may be caused by a number of biophysical factors. Two field-based studies, one on Oryza ...
