Abstract
On certain kinds of cloudy days, many forested ecosystems exhibit enhanced carbon uptake and water-use efficiency-the cloudy-day forest flux anomaly. Using ensemble methods to analyze eddy-covariance fluxes, we have diagnosed net ecosystem exchange (NEE) and water-use efficiency (WUE) of a temperate broadleaf forest and a tropical evergreen forest as they responded to natural fluctuating-light regimes. Here we apply average NEE and evapotranspiration solutions of a first-order dynamic model to describe the observed whole-canopy sensitivity to periodic light. On partly-cloudy days, maximum overall NEE enhancements over conventional steady-state equilibrium estimates are ≈ 25% for a midlatitude deciduous forest and ≈ 15% for a tropical evergreen forest. This finding supports our conclusion that in many cases the cloudy-day anomaly is a consequence of a dynamic response by the trees responding to fluctuating-light regimes occasioned by passing cumulus clouds.
期刊介绍：
The journal is concerned with the use of mathematical models and systems analysis for the description of ecological processes and for the sustainable management of resources. Human activity and well-being are dependent on and integrated with the functioning of ecosystems and the services they provide. We aim to understand these basic ecosystem functions using mathematical and conceptual modelling, systems analysis, thermodynamics, computer simulations, and ecological theory. This leads to a preference for process-based models embedded in theory with explicit causative agents as opposed to strictly statistical or correlative descriptions. These modelling methods can be applied to a wide spectrum of issues ranging from basic ecology to human ecology to socio-ecological systems. The journal welcomes research articles, short communications, review articles, letters to the editor, book reviews, and other communications. The journal also supports the activities of the [International Society of Ecological Modelling (ISEM)](http://www.isemna.org/).
