Modelling of carbon-, nitrogen-, and water balances in Scots pine stands

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Nutrients in Ecosystems ((NECO,volume 3))

Abstract

The aim of the project is to describe the development of pine ecosystems as well as the carbon, nitrogen and water balances at the selected sites as dependent on climate, air pollution and deposition. Because these driving forces develop independently from each other and not homogeneously within the area, measurement results from a limited number of sites cannot easily be transferred to other sites. Thus, a simple statistical approach or the simulation of growth from integrated environmental influences was not adequate to fulfil the tasks of the project. Consequently, a process-based approach has been developed to consider every impact by means of the changes in the basic physiological process involved, and which accounts explicitly for linkages and feedback mechanisms on different time scales.
