  • An overview of ABoVE airborne campaign data acquisitions and science opportunities

    Open AccessCharles E Miller, Paul Griffith et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2019

    The 2017 Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment Airborne Campaign (AAC) was one of the largest, most complex airborne science experiments conducted by NASA’s Earth Science Division. Between April and November, the AAC involved ten aircraft in more than 200 science flights that surveyed over 4 million km 2 in Alaska and northwestern Canada. Many flights were coordinated with same-day ground-based measurements to link process-level studies with geo…

  • More frequent burning increases vulnerability of Alaskan boreal black spruce forests

    Open AccessElizabeth Hoy, Merritt R Turetsky et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    Much recent research has investigated the effects of burning on mature black spruce ( Picea mariana ) forests in interior Alaska, however little research has focused on how frequent reburning affects soil organic layer (SOL) vulnerability in these ecosystems. We compared organic soil layer characteristics in black spruce stands that burned after two fire-free intervals (FFI), including an intermediate-interval (37–52 years) and a more typical lon…

  • Biomass offsets little or none of permafrost carbon release from soils, streams, and wildfire

    Open AccessBenjamin W Abbott, Jeremy B Jones et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    As the permafrost region warms, its large organic carbon pool will be increasingly vulnerable to decomposition, combustion, and hydrologic export. Models predict that some portion of this release will be offset by increased production of Arctic and boreal biomass; however, the lack of robust estimates of net carbon balance increases the risk of further overshooting international emissions targets. Precise empirical or model-based assessments of t…

  • Modeling the effects of fire severity and climate warming on active layer thickness and soil carbon storage of black spruce forests across the landscape in interior Alaska

    Open AccessHélène Genet, A D McGuire et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2013

    There is a substantial amount of carbon stored in the permafrost soils of boreal forest ecosystems, where it is currently protected from decomposition. The surface organic horizons insulate the deeper soil from variations in atmospheric temperature. The removal of these insulating horizons through consumption by fire increases the vulnerability of permafrost to thaw, and the carbon stored in permafrost to decomposition. In this study we ask how w…

  • Lowland Forest Loss in Protected Areas of Indonesian Borneo

    Open AccessLisa M Curran, Simon N Trigg et al.ARTICLEScience2004

    The ecology of Bornean rainforests is driven by El Niño–induced droughts that trigger synchronous fruiting among trees and bursts of faunal reproduction that sustain vertebrate populations. However, many of these species- and carbon-rich ecosystems have been destroyed by logging and conversion, which increasingly threaten protected areas. Our satellite, Geographic Information System, and field-based analyses show that from 1985 to 2001, Kalimanta…
