Fluxes of trace gases, water and energy - the 'breathing of the
biosphere' - are controlled by a large number of interacting
physical, chemical, biological and ecological processes. In this
interdisciplinary book, the authors provide the tools to understand
and quantitatively analyse fluxes of energy, organic compounds such
as terpenes, and trace gases including carbon dioxide, water vapour
and methane. It first introduces the fundamental principles
affecting the supply and demand for trace gas exchange at the leaf
and soil scales: thermodynamics, diffusion, turbulence and
physiology. It then builds on these principles to model the
exchange of water, carbon dioxide, terpenes and stable isotopes at
the ecosystem scale. Detailed mathematical derivations of commonly
used relations in biosphere-atmosphere interactions are provided
for reference in appendices. An accessible introduction for
graduate students and a key resource for researchers in related
fields, such as atmospheric science, hydrology, meteorology,
climate science, biogeochemistry and ecosystem ecology.
