Carbon flux in arid and semiarid area shrublands, especially in old-growth shrub ecosystems, has been rarely studied using eddy covariance techniques. We are taking long-term eddy covariance measurements at 3 distinct stands of chaparral at Sky Oaks Field Station. We have found that over a 100-year old-growth chamise-dominated chaparral shrub ecosystem can be a carbon . . . → Read More: Long-term Carbon Flux Measurements of Three Chaparral Stands at Sky Oaks Field Station
