Effect of nitrogen deposition on centennial forest water-use efficiency
The uptake of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from the atmosphere through photosynthesis is accompanied by an inevitable loss of water vapor through the stomata of leaves. The rate of leaf-level CO 2 assimilation per unit stomatal conductance, i.e. intrinsic water-use efficiency (WUE i ), is thus a key characteristic of terrestrial ecosystem functioning that is central to the global hydroclimate system. Empirical evidence and theory suggest a positive res…
Topography not tenure controls extent of wildfire within Mountain Ash forests
Two high intensity wildfire events, 70 years apart, burnt large areas of Mountain Ash forests in the Central Highlands, Victoria, Australia. Both resulted in Royal Commissions (the strongest form of judicial inquiry in Australia) as to their cause(s) owing to large losses of life and property. Here we tested the hypothesis that site ‘wetness’—determined using a Topographic Wetness Index—is a major determinant of the extent of fire (% of sample po…
Stomatal response to decreased relative humidity constrains the acceleration of terrestrial evapotranspiration
Terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET) is thermodynamically expected to increase with increasing atmospheric temperature; however, the actual constraints on the intensification of ET remain uncertain due to a lack of direct observations. Based on the FLUXNET2015 Dataset, we found that relative humidity (RH) is a more important driver of ET than temperature. While actual ET decrease at reduced RH, potential ET increases, consistently with the complem…
