Soil stores more carbon than the atmosphere and all above-ground life combined. The mechanisms, however, are not entirely understood. The Detrital Input and Removal Treatments (DIRT), led by UMBS Director-emeritus Knute Nadelhoffer, investigates...
**Thresholds and Mechanisms of NPP resilience following moderate disturbance: Why does one ecosystem recover and another one crash?** Scientists have long theorized that growth and carbon uptake decline as forests age. This long-held hypothesis,...
An ongoing research emphasis at UMBS centers on understanding how disturbance in aging forests affects carbon storage. Ten years ago, the Station initiated a program called the Forest Accelerated Succession Experiment (FASET) to investigate the...
The Stream Research Facility is designed for conducting experimental and manipulative studies on stream organisms and stream processes. Researchers have used the facility to study stream ecology, algal ecology, fish ecology, and the structure and...
**Can strategic management of aspen-dominated forests better prepare them for climate related threats?** As part of the Adaptive Aspen Management Experiment (AAME), mature aspen and select other species are being harvested around the Honeysuckle...
For over 20 years now, UMBS researchers have been studying atmospheric chemistry above the forest canopy to better understand the processes linked to ozone formation. Ozone is a key component of smog, and is both hazardous to human health and...
