A process-based interpretation of the stable C and O isotope signals in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum using the ecosystem model
MuSICA
Jérôme Ogée and Lisa Wingate INRA EPHYSE UR1263, Bordeaux, France Abstract
Carbon and oxygen stable isotope measurements are often performed in the field and at natural abundance in order to bring additional information on key variables regulating the CO2 and water cycles within terrestrial ecosystems (e.g. plant water-use efficiency, root water uptake depth…). For some applications, simple two-pool mixing models are enough to interpret such measurements. However, when more than two pools are considered, process- based isotope-enabled soil-plant-atmosphere transfer models are often required for unambiguous data interpretation. Here we will present several examples of such cases using the multi-layer, multi-leaf isotope-enabled model MuSICA (Ogée et al. 2003a; 2003b). We will illustrate how such a model can be used (1) to infer the representativeness of field chamber measurements on single branches (e.g. Wingate et al. 2010b), (2) to quantify the CO2-H2O oxygen isotope exchange rates below soil chambers (e.g. Wingate et al. 2010a) or (3) to interpret evaporation lines in the field.
