Investigating the influence of biosphere-atmosphere interactions on atmospheric chemistry and composition
The interactions between the biosphere and the atmosphere are an important controlling factor for regional to global atmospheric chemistry and composition. This ultimately has wide impacts on issues like air quality and climate change. However, there are still substantial uncertainties in the …

Biosphere-atmosphere interactions over semi-arid regions : modeling the role of mineral aerosols and irrigation in the regional climate system
… of Southwest Asia and Northwest Africa. The interactions between dust emissions, irrigation, and climate processes are studied and quantified using a regional climate model to perform a series of carefully designed numerical experiments. The performance of the numerical model is tested by …

Effects of Climate, Forest Structure, Soil Water, & Scale on Biosphere-Atmosphere Gas Exchange in a Great Lakes Mixed-Deciduous Forest
… control mass and energy exchange between the biosphere and atmosphere. Over forested canopies, the physical structure of vegetation interacts with the wind by exerting drag on the flow, thus generating turbulent mixing that is necessary for scalar transport. These interactions occur across a …

Turbulence in Natural Environments
<p>Problems in the area of land/biosphere-atmosphere interaction, hydrology, climate modeling etc. can be systematically organized as a study of turbulent flow in presence of boundary conditions in an increasing order of complexity. The present work is an attempt to study a few subsets of this …

Evaluation of Modis Products Over Four European Ecological Study Sites
… climate system due to its key role in geosphere-biosphere-atmosphere interactions. Understanding these processes is of important for predicting future climate and the future state of terrestrial ecosystems. Land surface properties such as the land cover type and leaf area index (LAI) are used as …
