Separation of net ecosystem exchange into assimilation and respiration using a light response curve approach: critical issues and global evaluation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce an algorithm for NEE partitioning that uses a hyperbolic light response curve fit to daytime NEE, modified to account for the temperature sensitivity of respiration and the VPD limitation of photosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Climate control of terrestrial carbon exchange across biomes and continents

Chuixiang Yi, +150 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the relationship between net ecosystem exchange of carbon and climate factors using the eddy covariance method at 125 unique sites in various ecosystems over six continents with a total of 559 site-years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal optimality of net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide and underlying mechanisms.

Shuli Niu, +69 more
- 01 May 2012 - 
TL;DR: The temperature response functions of net ecosystem exchange (NEE), an ecosystem-level property, were compiled and it was found that the temperature response of NEE followed a peak curve, with the optimum temperature being positively correlated with annual mean temperature over years and across sites.
