Contract period: 01.01.2007 - 01.01.2010
Purpose of research: Basic research

A 3-D process model, which simulates spatio-temporal distributions of water, energy and CO2 fluxes, turn-over of soil carbon pools, plant water uptake, transpiration, assimilation, and respiration within a field plot, will be developed. The model will be used to interpret spatial patterns and their interdependencies of soil properties (hydraulic properties and carbon content), state variables, and fluxes that are observed within a field plot. The relation between parameters of an effective field-scale 1-D process model, which predicts field scale averaged fluxes, and the variability of local parameters will be investigated.
