Abstract Tropical peatlands, which coexist with swamp forests, have accumulated vast amounts of carbon as soil organic matter. Since the 1970s, however, deforestation and drainage progressed on an enormous scale. In addition, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) drought large‐scale fires, grow larger under condition, are accelerating peatland devastation. That devastation enhances decomposition matter increases release to atmosphere CO 2 . This phenomenon suggests that tropical peatlands...
The temperature response of Jmax, the irradiance-saturated potential rate photosynthetic electron transport in absence Rubisco limitation, has usually been modelled by a complicated, modified Arrhenius type equation. Light saturation can be difficult to achieve and reduces precision fluorescence measurements. Consequently, we calculated at 1200 μmol photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) quanta m-2 s-1 from chlorophyll measurements on intact soybean leaves [Glycine max (L.) Merr] as...
The potential of palm-oil biofuels to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions compared with fossil fuels is increasingly questioned. So far, no measurement-based GHG budgets were available, and plantation age was ignored in Life Cycle Analyses (LCA). Here, we conduct LCA based on measured CO2, CH4 N2O fluxes young mature Indonesian oil palm plantations. CO2 dominates the on-site budgets. a carbon source (1012 ± 51 gC m-2 yr-1), sink (-754 38 yr-1). considering shows higher for biodiesel than...
Abstract. Indonesia is currently one of the regions with highest transformation rate land surface worldwide related to expansion oil palm plantations and other cash crops replacing forests on large scales. Land cover changes, which modify properties, have a direct effect temperature (LST), key driver for many ecological functions. Despite historic in toward governmental plans future expansion, this first study so far quantify impacts LST Indonesia. We analyze from thermal band Landsat image...
Photosynthetically active radiation (Q)-use efficiency (ɛ) is an important parameter for deriving carbon fluxes between forest canopies and the atmosphere from meteorological ground remote sensing data. A common approach to assume gross primary production (Pg) net (Pn) are proportional Q absorbed by vegetation (Qabs) defining proportionality constants ɛPg ɛPn (for Pg Pn, respectively). Although climate monitoring provide Qabs other data at global scale, information on ɛ particularly scarce...
Occurrence of drought is a slow process lasted for long time until the rainy season come. This natural disaster has broad and severe impact. research was conducted to examine level severity intensity in Java, Bali Nusa Tenggara using Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI). SPEI index used quantifying occurrence, can be analyze duration, intensity. Drought climatological phenomenon which difficult how determine its onset, magnitude, intensity, spatial extent, etc....
Upwelling events analysis in southern coast of Java and Banda sea were conducted. The identified by using satellite data i.e. wind surface, Sea Surface Temperature (SST) ocean color during period 14 years (2002-2016) which calculated Ekman pumping transport. It’s found that velocity reached a maximum June-July-August (JJA) approximately 3,65x10 -6 . Comparing with transport, makes an even greater contribution to the local upwelling Sea. 4,9x10 -1 ms transport equal coastal Java. That’s...
Abstract. The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in 2015 was one of the strongest observed almost 20 years and set stage for a severe drought emergence widespread fires related smoke emission over large parts Southeast Asia. In tropical lowlands Sumatra, which were heavily affected by haze, areas rainforest have been converted into oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations during past decades. this study, we investigate impact haze on net ecosystem CO2 exchange, evapotranspiration,...

Abstract Deforestation and agricultural expansion in the tropics affect local regional climatic conditions, leading to synergistic negative impacts on land ecosystems. Climatic changes manifest increased inter‐ intraseasonal variations frequency of extreme events (i.e., droughts floods), which have evident consequences for aboveground biodiversity. However, until today, there been no studies how use affects seasonal below ground tropical ecosystems, may be more buffered against variation....

In tall vegetation canopies, calm weather conditions may result in the formation of an isolated below-canopy air layer. Especially during night, carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes be concealed from above-canopy eddy covariance (EC) measurements, masking magnitude CO2 net ecosystem exchange (NEE). Particular attention to this "nighttime problem" needs paid oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations, which can form a dense top canopy and are grown tropical regions where wind speeds often low....
