Cross-Scale Terrestrial Ecophysiology (XTE)
Jacob A. Nelson
Group description
The Cross-Scale Terrestrial Ecophysiology (XTE) group is focused on taking understanding gained from on the ground measurements into the context of broad scale carbon, water and energy cycles, via knowledge guided, data driven methodologies. Key aims include:
- Foster and utilize global and regional measurement networks
- Synthesize ecophysiological understanding from direct ecosystem measurements
- Develope data driven models guided by mechanistic understanding
- Global and reagional analysis of carbon, water, and energy cycles
