- Abstract
- The current work presents the testing of a modeling strategy that has been recently developed to simulate
the gross and net carbon fluxes of Mediterranean forest ecosystems. The strategy is based on the
use of a NDVI-driven parametric model, C-Fix, and of a biogeochemical model, BIOME-BGC, whose outputs
are combined to simulate the behavior of forest ecosystems at different development stages. The
performances of the modeling strategy are evaluated in three Italian study sites (San Rossore, Lecceto
and Pianosa), where carbon fluxes are being measured through the eddy correlation technique. These
sites are characterized by variable Mediterranean climates and are covered by different types of forest
vegetation (pine wood, Holm oak forest and Macchia, respectively). The results of the tests indicate that
the modeling strategy is generally capable of reproducing monthly GPP and NEE patterns in all three
study sites. The highest accuracy is obtained in the most mature, homogenous pine wood of San Rossore,
while the worst results are found in the Lecceto forest, where there are the most heterogeneous terrain,
soil and vegetation conditions. The main error sources are identified in the inaccurate definition of the
model inputs, particularly those regulating the site water budgets, which exert a strong control on forest
productivity during the Mediterranean summer dry season. In general, the incorporation of NDVI-derived
fAPAR estimates corrects for most of these errors and renders the forest flux simulations more stable and
accurate. (literal)
