Water plays an important role in the biological and chemical processes occurring in the soil. Together with soil temperature, they […]

Soil temperature follows the changes in the air temperature with a time lag that increases with soil depth. Close to

Species composition in forests is mainly driven by climate (which determines air temperature), and by latitude (which determines light intensity).

The dynamics of a boreal forest throughout the year is strongly marked by the seasonality of the subarctic climate, which

A greenhouse gas is a gas in the atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range causing

Years of measurements have produced a lot of information on soil respiration. We know more or less how the respiration

Many years of measurements have provided a lot of information on the behaviour of the forest, how it photosynthesizes, transpires

The measuring concept is actually quite simple. We place a chamber on a small soil surface area and follow the

Hyytiälä Forestry Field Station, located in Juupajoki, Southern-Finland, is a unit of the Department of Forest Sciences in the University

There are plenty of methods available to measure photosynthesis. The method we use is actually a measurement of the carbon
