An overview of the Energy Balance Experiment (EBEX-2000) is given. This experiment
studied the ability of state-of-the-art measurements to close the surface energy balance over a …

In summer 2018, Europe experienced a record drought, but it remains unknown how the
drought affected ecosystem carbon dynamics. Using observations from 34 eddy covariance …

In light of ongoing climate changes in wine-growing regions, the selection of drought-tolerant
rootstocks is becoming a crucial factor for developing a sustainable viticulture. In this study, …

Soil management in vineyard inter-rows has a great influence on soil hydraulic conductivity
and bulk density, and, consequently, on runoff and soil erosion processes at the field scale. …

Background and Aims I n the light of possible climate change, a crucial aspect for future M
editerranean E urope viticulture is the selection of new rootstocks exhibiting adaptability to …

Synchronous sonic anemometric measurements at five heightswithin a mixed coniferous forest
were used to test two different parameterisations ofcanopy architecture in the application …

The eddy covariance is a powerful technique to estimate the surface-atmosphere exchange
of different scalars at the ecosystem scale. The EC method is central to the ecosystem …

Understanding the critical soil moisture (SM) threshold (θ crit ) of plant water stress and land
surface energy partitioning is a basis to evaluate drought impacts and improve models for …

Abstract Knowledge of sap flow variability in tree trunks is important for up-scaling transpiration
from the measuring point to the whole-tree and stand levels. Natural variability in sap flow…

Research infrastructures play a key role in launching a new generation of integrated long-term,
geographically distributed observation programmes designed to monitor climate change, …
