The devil is in the details: Application of emulation-based data assimilation techniques to constrain a dynamic ecosystem model
Murphy, Bailey A. (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2020) -
A different peat perspective: Quantifying tropical peatland ecosystem variables from the ground and from space
Koupaei Abyazani, Nikaan (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2025)Peatlands are ecosystems that store immense amounts of carbon in their soil and therefore play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. However, due to climate change and anthropogenic disturbance, these ecosystems are ... -
Impacts of temperature-dependent heating demand on wintertime emissions
Scalpone, Cara (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2025)Most residences are heated by burning fuels, such as natural gas, heating oil, or wood, which emits combustion byproducts into the atmosphere. Space heating demand is dependent on outdoor temperatures, so the impact of ... -
The influence of interannual carbon variability on long-term sequestration in proximate northern forests and wetlands
Koupaei-Abyazani, Nikaan (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2022) -
Land-atmosphere interactions over the Indonesian Maritime Continent
Muttaqin, Andi S. (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2023)The “Maritime Continent” (MC) is the largest archipelago in the tropical region, consisting of over 22,000 islands and inhabited by more than 400 million people. This region has a significant impact on global atmospheric ... -
A macrosystems approach towards improved understanding of interactions between forest management, structure, function and climate change, and implications for the terrestrial carbon cycle
Murphy, Bailey A. (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2023)Forests constitute a significant global carbon sink that continues to expand in size, in addition to supporting a range of environmental, economic, and social co-benefits. Forests interact with the overlying atmosphere ... -
Modeling and assessing the impact of nocturnal NOx chemistry on air quality
Hoffman, Alicia (2024)Nitrogen oxides (NOx ≡ NO + NO2) are air pollutants in the United States because they have direct human health impacts and play a central role in the production of secondary pollutants like ozone and particle pollution. ... -
Modelled response of extratropical cyclone cases in the Great Plains to projected late twenty-first century snow cover extents
Clare, Ryan (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2018) -
Role of heterogeneous ecosystems in modulating surface-atmosphere transport
Paleri, Sreenath (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2023) -
Where has all the energy gone? Quantifying advective energy fluxes with dense tower networks
Mather, Emily R. (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 2024)Accurate and extensive measurements of the exchange of energy between the land surface and atmosphere are needed for building and improving models of the earth’s climate system. The eddy covariance (EC) method, used to ...
