The effect of post-fire stand age on the boreal forest energy balance

Abstract: Fire in the boreal forest renews forest stands and changes the ecosystem properties. The successional stage of the vegetation determines the radiative budget, energy balance partitioning, evapotranspiration and carbon dioxide flux. Here, we synthesize energy balance measurements from across the western boreal zone of North America as a function of stand age following fire. The data are from 22 sites in Alaska, Saskatchewan and Manitoba collected between 1998 and 2004 for a 150-year forest chronosequence. The s… Show more

“…When compared with earlier stages of succession, lower albedos have been observed for mature forests throughout the world, including boreal (Amiro et al 2006), temperate (Roberts et al 2004;Ogunjemiyo et al 2005) and tropical forests (Culf et al 1995;Giambelluca et al 1997). High rates of evaporative fluxes (i.e.…”

“…By killing overstory trees and initiating succession, fires modify vegetation composition over a period of decades (Johnstone and Kasischke 2005;Goetz et al, 2007; Published by Copernicus Publications on behalf of the European Geosciences Union. Johnstone et al, 2010) that, in turn, influences surface albedo Lyons et al, 2006) and sensible and latent heat fluxes (Liu et al, 2005;Amiro et al, 2006;Lee et al, 2011). These fire-ecosystem interactions have the potential to modify regional climate (Rogers et al, 2013) and influence boreal forest species composition (Goetz et al, 2007;Johnstone et al, 2011;Barrett et al, 2011;Mann et al, 2012;Hollingsworth et al, 2013).…”
