Analysis of the net ecosystem exchange of CO₂ in a 56-year-old coastal Douglas-fir stand : its relation to temperature, soil moisture and photosynthetically active radiation

The primary goal of this thesis was to investigate the relationship of canopy photosynthesis (P) to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in a 56-year-old coastal Douglas-fir stand (DF49) located on Vancouver Island. Canopy P was calculated as daytime NEP + daytime R[sub e], where NEP and R[s...
