1 Interspecific ecological and meteorological controls on forest canopy-derived hydrology and biogeochemistry in the southeastern United States Courtney M. Siegert Katy E. Limpert A.A. Sasith Karunarathna Department of Forestry
2 Introduction Introduction Ecosystem services, timber production, and carbon sequestration potential are fundamentally constrained by forest health and can be measured using parameters such as net primary production, evapotranspiration, resiliency to disturbance, andnutrient budgets (Long et al. 2009; Pan et al. 2009; Wear and Huggett 2011; Woodall et al. 2013). Precipitation = Interception + (Throughfall + Stemflow) Dry Deposition (gases, particles) Throughfall & stemflow deposit water and nutrients directly to the forest floor via converging pathways inherent to forest structure (Levia & Frost 2003, 2006). Hydrologic fluxes are influenced by environmental and biological factors: species composition & morphology (Siegert et al. 2014), storm characteristics (Van Stan et al. 2011), and seasonality (Levia et al. 2011). Intra-system nutrient cycling also subject to similar influences (Staelens et al. 2006). Throughfall Stemflow Canopy Uptake/ Leaching Wet Deposition (rain, snow, fog)
3 Implications of Changing Forest Nutrient Cycles Introduction WATER QUALITY: Longer growing seasons will increase nutrient cycling of readily leached solutes (DOC and K + ) (Campbell et al. 2009). Enhanced leaching of DOC can mobilize heavy metals, putting pressure on stream habitats and water treatment plants (Mikkelson et al. 2012). WATER QUANTITY: Changes in species composition alters hydrologic flux to forest floor and watershed discharge (Woodall et al. 2013). CARBON SEQUESTRATION: Temperate forests could once again return to carbon sources as declining health reduces sequestration abilities (Bonan 2008). SOURCE: USGCRP (2001) 3
4 Throughfall Variability Canopy Heterogeneity Understory Structure & Composition Rainfall Intensity Sampling Design [Herwitz 1986] Seasonality Leafless Leafed [Howerda et al. 2006] [Staelens et al. 2008]
5 Stemflow Variability Branching Geometry Wind Characteristics Size [Siegert and Levia 2014] Rainfall Characteristics [Levia et al. 2010] Bark Morphology [Van Stan et al. 2011] White Oak Southern Red Oak Shagbark Hickory
6 Research Objectives 1. Quantify spatial and temporal relationships among canopy-derived hydrologic and biogeochemical fluxes in deciduous forests with respect to: a. Seasonality b. Stand composition c. Storm characteristics 2. Examine the influence of natural and man-made disturbances on nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems.
