Carbon-nitrogen interactions in forest ecosystems

Objective

CNTER is and interdisciplinary collaborative project where data from several hundred study and monitoring sites, and results from long-term nitrogen addition and labelling experiments will be used to gain new insights in carbon(C) and nitrogen (N) interactions in forest soils, especially the effect of N deposition on the soil C sink. Using the European data as well as several regional datasets, the project will identify and validate key parameters and empirical relationships (indicators and transfer functions) relevant to C and N that signify changes in forest ecosystem functioning or environmental impacts. The resembling of long-term N addition experiments will from validation of the identified empirical relationships. Data and process insights will be used to improve and validate dynamic models for prediction in time and space. The major ecosystem impacts we shall consider are
(1) changes in forest soil carbon storage, and
(2) changes in nitrate concentrations in forest waters.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
