Effects of summer and winter warming on CO2 efflux in high Arctic tundra
The main goal of this project is to understand ecosystem C balance with summer and winter warming in Arctic tundra ecosystem by observations of ecosystem CO2 fluxes. I will collaborate with ongoing ITEX projects along with the developer of new soil efflux techniques to conduct continuous observations of CO2 fluxes in high Arctic tundra under warming.
Objectives
- Understand and quantify annual ecosystem C balance in high Arctic tundra with summer and winter warming
- Testing the applicability of new technology in continuous observations of CO2 fluxes
- Create collaborations among several different research groups in understanding the effects of warming on ecosystem C balance in high Arctic tundra
