Published in Nature an article of the Fortest research group. Research activities are focused on the interactions between vegetation canopy and the atmosphere chemical-physical layer; considering also soil structure and functionality. In particolar, energy and matter (carbon, water, nitrogen) fluxes between atmosphere and biosphere are analysed and models simulating vegetation systems and turbulent and radiative transfer are used. Those results are upscaled at a regional scale to obtain a carbon balance integrating ground data bases and remote sensing data. The interdisciplinary study on the interactions between vegetation, soil and climate is carried out also analysing the soil-canopy interaction, focusing on humus dynamics.
