Bark beetle impacts on forest evapotranspiration and its partitioning

Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research

Insect outbreaks affect forest structure and function and represent a major category of forest disturbance globally.

Description

However, the resulting impacts on evapotranspiration (ET), and especially hydrological partitioning between the abi-otic (evaporation) and biotic (transpiration) components of total ET, are not well constrained. As a result, we combined remote sensing, eddy covariance, and hydrological modeling approaches to determine the effects of bark beetle out-break on ET and its partitioning at multiple scales throughout the Southern Rocky Mountain Ecoregion (SRME), USA.

At the eddy covariance measurement scale, 85 % of the forest was affected by beetles, and water year ET as a
