The Ecosystem processes – team in the ATM Center of Excellence has in 2015-16
produced several important findings, highlighted in the FCoE Abstract Book.
Our main aim has been to utilize the long-term measurements for building up a comprehensive
understanding of the feedbacks and linkages between different compartments in the boreal
ecosystems and the environment. In addition, short-term targeted campaigns with variations of the
driving forces are used to pinpoint the key processes that need to be taken into account for model
analysis and forecasting of the system changes.
Here some of the recent results are summarized under four themes: Exchange of aerosol precursors
between ecosystems and atmosphere, Whole tree physiology, Optics of photosynthesis, and
Biogeochemical cycles and element budgets.
