In the southeastern United States, we established a factorial throughfall reduction (D) × fertilization (F) experiment in 2012 in four loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) plantations encompassing the climatic range of the species in Florida (FL), Georgia (GA), Oklahoma (OK), and Virginia (VA). Net primary productivity (NPP) was estimated from tree inventories for four consecutive years, and net ecosystem productivity (NEP) as NPP minus heterotrophic respiration (RH). Soil respiration (RS) was measured biweekly-monthly for at least one year at each site and simultaneous measurements of RS & RH were taken five to eight times through the year for at least one year during the experiment. Reducing throughfall by 30% decreased available soil water at the surface and for the 0–90 cm soil profile. Fertilization increased NPP at all sites and D decreased NPP (to a lesser extent) at the GA and OK sites. The F + D treatment did not affect NPP. Mean annual NPP under F ranged from 10.01 ± 0.21 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 at VA (mean ± SE) to 17.20 ± 0.50 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 at FL, while the lowest levels were under the D treatment, ranging from 8.63 ± 0.21 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 at VA to 14.97 ± 0.50 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 at FL. RS and RH were, in general, decreased by F and D with differential responses among sites, leading to NEP increases under F. Throughfall reduction increased NEP at FL and VA due to a negative effect on RH and no effect on NPP. Mean annual NEP ranged from 1.63 ± 0.59 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 in the control at OK to 8.18 ± 0.82 MgC·ha−1·yr−1 under F + D at GA. These results suggest that fertilization will increase NEP under a wide range of climatic conditions including reduced precipitation, but either NPP or RH could be the primary driver because F can increase stand growth, as well as suppress RS and RH. Moreover, D and F never significantly interacted for an annual C flux, potentially simplifying estimates of how fertilization and drought will affect C cycling in these ecosystems.}, journal={FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT}, author={Bracho, Rosvel and Vogel, Jason G. and Will, Rodney E. and Noormets, Asko and Samuelson, Lisa J. and Jokela, Eric J. and Gonzalez-Benecke, Carlos A. and Gezan, Salvador A. and Markewitz, Daniel and Seiler, John R. and et al.}, year={2018}, month={Sep}, pages={39–52} } @article{lin_noormets_king_sun_mcnulty_domec_2017, title={An extractive removal step optimized for a high-throughput alpha-cellulose extraction method for delta C-13 and delta O-18 stable isotope ratio analysis in conifer tree rings}, volume={37}, ISSN={["1758-4469"]}, DOI={10.1093/treephys/tpw084}, abstractNote={Stable isotope ratios (δ13C and δ18O) of tree-ring α-cellulose are important tools in paleoclimatology, ecology, plant physiology and genetics. The Multiple Sample Isolation System for Solids (MSISS) was a major advance in the tree-ring α-cellulose extraction methods, offering greater throughput and reduced labor input compared to traditional alternatives. However, the usability of the method for resinous conifer species may be limited by the need to remove extractives from some conifer species in a separate pretreatment step. Here we test the necessity of pretreatment for α-cellulose extraction in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.), and the efficiency of a modified acetone-based ambient-temperature step for the removal of extractives (i) in loblolly pine from five geographic locations representing its natural range in the southeastern USA, and (ii) on five other common coniferous species (black spruce (Picea mariana Mill.), Fraser fir (Abies fraseri (Pursh) Poir.), Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco), Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa D.)) with contrasting extractive profiles. The differences of δ13C values between the new and traditional pretreatment methods were within the precision of the isotope ratio mass spectrometry method used (±0.2‰), and the differences between δ18O values were not statistically significant. Although some unanticipated results were observed in Fraser fir, the new ambient-temperature technique was deemed as effective as the more labor-consuming and toxic traditional pretreatment protocol. The proposed technique requires a separate acetone-inert multiport system similar to MSISS, and the execution of both pretreatment and main extraction steps allows for simultaneous treatment of up to several hundred microsamples from resinous softwood, while the need of additional labor input remains minimal.}, number={1}, journal={TREE PHYSIOLOGY}, author={Lin, Wen and Noormets, Asko and King, John S. and Sun, Ge and McNulty, Steve and Domec, Jean-Christophe}, year={2017}, month={Jan}, pages={142–150} }
