A comparison of three methods to estimate evapotranspiration in two contrasting loblolly pine plantations: Age-related changes in water use and drought sensitivity of evapotranspiration components
(Forest Science, 2012-10-02)Increasing variability of rainfall patterns requires detailed understanding of the pathways of water loss from ecosystems to optimize carbon uptake and management choices. In the current study we characterized the usability ... -
Conversion of natural forests to managed forest plantations decreases tree resistance to prolonged droughts
(Forest Ecology and Management, 2015-01-01)© 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.Throughout the southern US, past forest management practices have replaced large areas of native forests with loblolly pine plantations and have resulted in changes in forest response to ... -
Drought and thinning have limited impacts on evapotranspiration in a managed pine plantation on the southeastern United States coastal plain
(Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2018-11)© 2018 Managed and natural coastal plain forests in the humid southeastern United States exchange large amounts of water and energy with the atmosphere through the evapotranspiration (ET) process. ET plays an important role ... -
Hydraulic redistribution of soil water by roots affects whole-stand evapotranspiration and net ecosystem carbon exchange.
(New Phytol, 2010-07)*Hydraulic redistribution (HR) of water via roots from moist to drier portions of the soil occurs in many ecosystems, potentially influencing both water use and carbon assimilation. *By measuring soil water content, sap ... -
Modeling the Potential Impacts of Climate Change on the Hydrology of Selected Forested Wetlands in the Southeastern United States

Variability of sun-induced chlorophyll fluorescence according to stand age-related processes in a managed loblolly pine forest
(Global Change Biology, 2018-07)© 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Leaf fluorescence can be used to track plant development and stress, and is considered the most direct measurement of photosynthetic activity available from remote sensing techniques. Red and ...
