    Wendy H Liu
    Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
    Oecologia 148:108-17. 2006
    ..Disturbance, such as selective logging, can enlarge the WD pool, increasing the net C flux from the WD pool to the atmosphere and potentially causing it to become a net C source...
  2. ncbi Carbon in Amazon forests: unexpected seasonal fluxes and disturbance-induced losses
    Scott R Saleska
    Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
    Science 302:1554-7. 2003
    ..Given that episodic disturbances are characteristic of old-growth forests, it is likely that carbon sequestration is lower than has been inferred from recent eddy covariance studies at undisturbed sites...
  3. ncbi Amazon forests green-up during 2005 drought
    Scott R Saleska
    Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721, USA
    Science 318:612. 2007
    ..These findings suggest that Amazon forests, although threatened by human-caused deforestation and fire and possibly by more severe long-term droughts, may be more resilient to climate changes than ecosystem models assume...

    Isotopes Environ Health Stud 42:115-33. 2006
    ..This suggests that new sensors using QCL-based isotope ratio absorption spectroscopy should make continuous long-term observations of the isotopic composition of CO2 fluxes via eddy covariance methods feasible...
