Parameter Optimization
Daily time step
1. Daily GPP parameters optimized with tower GPP
(or Biome-BGC GPP)
2. Daily Ra parameters optimized by reference to
measured NPP (or Biome-BGC NPP)
3. Daily Rh parameters optimzed with tower NEE (or
Biome-BGC NEE)
Fusion daily NEP (line) compared to reference NEP (circles)

Conclusions
Land-based carbon sinks significantly
offset fossil carbon emissions in Oregon
Post-fire increases in heterotrophic
respiration reduce the regional carbon
sink
Interannual variation in climate can
substantially modify regional NEP
