▼ The possible change in orographic precipitation in response to global warming is a rising concern under climate change, which could potentially cause significant societal impact. A general circulation model was employed to simulate the climate on an aquaplanet which has idealized mountains at its mid-latitudes. It was found that orographic precipitation at northern mid-latitudes could increase by rates faster than the Clausius-Clapeyron scaling, 7%/K of surface warming, in doubling CO2 simulations, while at southern mid-latitudes orographic precipitation decreased. The frequency of extreme events increased at all latitudes of the idealized mountains. Through a simple diagnostic model it was revealed that the changes in the climatological means of orographic precipitation rates were mostly determined by the changes in three variables: the speed of the wind component perpendicular to a mountain, the vertical displacement of saturated parcels, and the moist adiabatic lapse rate of saturation specific humidity. The last variable had relatively uniform contribution to the total changes in orographic precipitation across different latitudes, about 4 - 5%/K. But contributions from the changes in wind speed and saturated vertical displacement were found to have strong north-south asymmetry, which were linked to the poleward shift of storm tracks. The changes in wind speed had positive contributions in general, with larger contributions at higher mid-latitudes. While the changes in saturated vertical displacement had negative contributions at all latitudes, but larger negative contributions were located at lower midlatitudes. Although the poleward shift of storm tracks greatly affects regional precipitation, following the poleward shift of storm tracks the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of precipitation at the latitudes of maximum precipitation in the control simulation is very similar to that in the warm climate climate simulation, except that precipitation intensity was positively shifted by a constant factor &mdash mainly due to changes in the moist adiabatic lapse rate of saturation specific humidity.

▼ In many models of land hydrology, precipitation (P) and potential evapotranspiration (PET, a.k.a. evaporative demand) are the main inputs that determine actual evapotranspiration, runoff, soil moisture, and aridity or drought. In the first three chapters of this work, we attempt to understand the robust subtropical P declines, planet-wide PET increases, and widespread P/PET declines projected under strong greenhouse warming in CMIP5, a large suite of global climate models (GCMs). Motivated by the apparent absence of this aridification during past greenhouse eras (and the apparent aridity of the ice ages), in the final chapter we use a very simple land model coupled to an atmospheric GCM and a slab ocean to evaluate the relevance and robustness of the P/PET responses to warming across a wide range of boundary conditions and modeling choices. In the CMIP5 projections, robust P declines are almost entirely found within the equator-side flanks and extensions of the model extratropical P belts (including both dry and wet regions), not in the centers of the subtropical dry zones nor on the dry margins of the tropical wet belts. This implies that they are primarily caused by the dynamic poleward retreat of extratropically driven P, not by the thermodynamic increase in dry-zone moisture divergence (which occurs largely as an evaporation increase.) The robust P declines are largely found over the oceans and intersect land only in certain regions; most land locations see non-robust changes in P or robust increases in P. On the other hand, Penman-Monteith PET robustly increases everywhere on land, usually by a low double-digit percentage. This is because the simulated Penman-Monteith PET response is almost always dominated by the response to the local warming itself, not by the responses to concurrent changes in surface radiation, relative humidity (RH), or wind speed. For given values of the latter three variables, warming increases the numerator of the Penman-Monteith equation at a roughly Clausius-Clapeyron rate, ~ 6% K^-1, but it increases the denominator more slowly, especially in colder base climates. Thus, evaporative demand increases with local warming at around 1.5-4 % K^-1, where the larger values occur in colder regions. A simple analytic scaling for this sensitivity very accurately predicts the PET response field of each model. This PET increase is large enough that in each of the 16 CMIP5 models examined, the ratio P/PET declines with global warming in most land areas in the tropics, the subtropics, and the midlatitudes, implying aridification. However, in our idealized-land GCM, the weakly increasing land P response and strongly increasing PET response that enable this are not general. Depending on the prescribed ocean heat transport, continental configuration, and base planetary temperature, greenhouse warming often causes our modeled land P to strongly decrease, or sometimes to increase so strongly as to entirely suppress the PET increase (even as global-mean P increases… Advisors/Committee Members: Frierson, Dargan M.

▼ Freezing precipitation is a major hazard across Canada. Usually occurring in the form of freezing rain and/or wet snow and can damage transportation networks, infrastructure, and vegetation. Under future warming climatic conditions, the characteristics of this precipitation may change but there is great uncertainty. This thesis characterizes damaging freezing precipitation events within Manitoba and examines their future occurrence within a warmer climate. A total of 10 events were identified, 8 of which were within the WRF period; 5 of these had both freezing rain and wet snow, and the other 3 had freezing rain exclusively. These were characterized using data from the Japanese 55-year Reanalysis (JRA-55), several Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) datasets, and two 4 km Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) simulations from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) from October 2000 to September 2013 (Liu et al. 2017). These were a retrospective control (CTRL) and a pseudo-global warming (PGW) simulation covering CONUS and much of Canada. Large scale and local factors were associated with these events. Most (9 of 10) showed consistent large scale forcing: a midlatitude cyclone with 500 hPa trough and jet exit enhancing lift, low surface pressure centre nearby, and an atmospheric river. Local factors, such as the elevated terrain of Riding Mountain, influenced 2 events in CTRL and 3 in PGW by altering surface temperature and/or winds to be favourable for freezing precipitation. This terrain is also somewhat co-located with areas of severe ice loading, as shown by the Canadian Standards Association (2015). In the PGW simulations, these events changed significantly. The 3 events with freezing rain exclusively were in December and January. Of these, 2 (1) had increased (decreased) in extent, precipitation accumulation, and duration. There was no wet snow in these events in CTRL, but it was present in PGW. The other 5 events that had both wet snow and freezing rain, and none had wet snow exclusively. Of these, 1 increased in extent, duration, and accumulation, and another increased in extent, but had similar duration and lesser accumulation. The other 3 events were reduced.

▼ Understanding the link between mass extinction and extreme global warming is critical to the projections of the consequences of future climate change. The end-Permian mass extinction is the greatest biodiversity loss in the history of animal life, and occurred about 252 million years ago. This event is coeval within error with the eruption of the Siberian Traps, one of the largest continental flood basalt provinces on Earth. Sill intrusion into organic-rich sediments and contact metamorphism in the Tunguska Basin could have released >100,000 Gt CO2, driving carbon cycle perturbation and hence global warming. Many carbon isotopic measurements from numerous locations, both in carbonate and organic matter, suggest there is a ~ -3 to -5‰ global carbon isotope excursion during the end-Permian extinction event. In this dissertation, I used multi-disciplinary approaches to explore the overarching factors that contribute to the carbon isotope excursions and their sedimentary signature. We evaluated proxy climate data and the existing paleoclimate simulations to assess our current understanding of the link between mass extinction and climate change. Proxies indicate that prior to the end-Permian extinction, tropical sea surface temperatures ranged from ~22 to 25 °C, and possible atmospheric pCO2 values ranged from ~500 to ~4000 ppm. During the peak extinction, tropical temperatures rose up to ~30 °C while pCO2 perhaps increased up to ~8,000 ppm. We found climate models that use different pre-event pCO2 values show similar amount of CO2 doubling to replicate the observed carbon isotope excursion. We note that the expressions of temperature change and carbon isotope excursion during the extinction event show strong heterogeneity globally, thus a spatially resolved model that considers the long-term carbon cycle has advantages over simple box models. An Earth system model of intermediate complexity, cGENIE, was used to extract the pattern of CO2 release needed to replicate the observed carbon isotope excursion across the Permian-Triassic boundary. This isotopic inversion approach is novel in geochemical modeling studies and is a more precise way to match geological records. This analysis leads us to suggest that the source of CO2 must have been significantly 13C-enriched than typical biogenic or thermogenic methane to explain the significant warming that occurred during and after the extinction event. We then further tested the ocean acidification scenario, another consequence of CO2 emission besides global warming during the end-Permian extinction. Sensitivity analyses were carried out with a range of reasonable estimates of the initial ocean saturation state. We find it most likely that the Siberian Traps volcanism released CO2 in two major multimillennial pulses. The modeled rates of C release are dependent on the δ13C of the source and the initial saturation state of the ocean. We find that the initial buffering capacity of the ocean was quickly overwhelmed for many of the plausible scenarios for C release. We suggest… Advisors/Committee Members: Lee Kump, Dissertation Advisor/Co-Advisor, Katherine Haines Freeman, Committee Member, Michael Allan Arthur, Committee Member, Raymond Gabriel Najjar Jr., Committee Member.

▼ The semi-arid Salt and Verde River basins in Arizona depend, in part, on Atmospheric River (AR)-related precipitation for meeting the water demands of the Phoenix metropolitan area. On the other hand, the region is also susceptible to AR-related flooding. In a warming climate, water vapor in the atmosphere increases, thus likely increasing the water vapor transport within ARs. To understand the precipitation-related impacts of climate change on extreme ARs affecting Arizona, a pseudo-global warming (PGW) method was used. High-resolution control and future simulations of five intense historical AR events that affected the Salt and Verde River basin in Central Arizona were carried out. Control simulations realistically captured the magnitude and spatial distribution of precipitation during all five events. The PGW approach for future simulations involved changing the initial and lateral boundary conditions of the input data. The climate change signals of several thermodynamic variables were obtained from an ensemble of 9 General Circulation Models for RCP 8.5 scenario. Two sets of perturbations were applied to the input data. The first set consisted of constant values of temperature change at different vertical levels (PGW1) and the second set consisted of spatially varying temperature values (PGW2). Future simulations showed an overall increase in integrated vertical transport of vapor and upward moisture flux at cloud base over the region for all events. The changes in precipitation at both domain and basin level were highly spatially heterogeneous. Precipitation at the basin level increased in all PGW1 simulations but showed a decrease for some PGW2 simulations. The domain-averaged precipitation increased in all future simulations but the increase remained sub-Clausius-Clapeyron for all but one PGW2 event in which shifting and significant strengthening of the low-level jet was observed. Melting levels rose by more than 600m in all future simulations and this led to a decrease in the fraction of frozen precipitation during the events by more than 80%.

▼ Precipitation from Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) in the central US are not only a large contributor to water resources, but a hazard to society due to hail, wind gusts, tornadoes, lightning, and flash floods. These severe storms can cause damage to houses, vehicles, and trees. Due to this significance, there is a large interest in using Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) to predict extreme weather and climate. Also, with a changing climate, it is important to understand how weather system characteristics will change in the future. Convection-permitting NWP models simulate convective processes more realistically than coarser grid models due to errors in local-scale processes and convective parameterization not accurately producing convection. The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) conducted a continental-scale convection-allowing simulation using the regional Advanced Research Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF-ARW) model. The model simulations are made up of two parts: (1) A 13-year (2000–2013) simulation of historical weather and climate patterns, and (2) A pseudo global warming (PGW) simulation to project the weather and climate patterns at the end of the 21st century. This model was designed to have 4-km grid spacing covering the entire continental US and the southern portion of Canada (up to 56 ºN) and downscaled the ERA-Interim reanalysis for the period from October 2000 to September 2013. Downscaling to a higher resolution permits the model to simulate deep convection without parameterization, proving to be more realistic. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the historical portion of the WRF model’s capabilities in producing the characteristics of observed warm-season convection in the central United States, with an emphasis on radar reflectivity distribution, the diurnal cycle of precipitation and storm propagation. The secondary objective is to evaluate the PGW projection to understand how a future climate will impact radar reflectivity distribution, the diurnal cycle of precipitation, and storm propagation. The first objective is achieved by comparing the simulated composite (column maximum) radar by comparing the Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Dopplers (WSR-88Ds) national mosaic is an objective of this research. Along with radar, the accumulated modeled precipitation is validated against the Stage IV multisensory gridded observed precipitation product. The comparison focuses on the central plains of the US for March through August. Specifically, the area of interest for this research is between 30 ºN and 45 ºN, and 90 ºW and 105 ºW. Results comparing the historical simulation to observations show that the simulation can produce a similar distribution of heavy extreme reflectivity values, yet is shown to underestimate light and moderate reflectivity and precipitation frequencies. This study also determined that the model can capture the timing of the precipitation diurnal cycle, including the general propagation of thunderstorms across the domain. However, there is a… Advisors/Committee Members: Li, Yanping, Ireson, Andrew, Guo, Huiqing, Li, Wenhong.

▼ The dramatic increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide since the Industrial Revolution has led to a 30% increase in ocean acidification over pre-industrial levels. Although most ocean acidification research thus far has focused on calcifying organisms such as corals, the potential of this increase in acidity (H+ ions) to cause acid-base imbalances in soft-bodied animals such as sponges has been grossly overlooked. Furthermore, many studies on ocean acidification have not considered the elevated temperatures that are predicted to accompany future climate change conditions. Sponges are crucial components to coral reef systems, providing food, nutrients, structure, and support. The sponge Chondrilla nucula is a common member of Caribbean coral reef communities, and is occasionally found in conditions exhibiting natural environmental hypercapnia, such as caves and dark portions of mangroves. We sought to test the hypothesis that such acclimation to acidic conditions in situ translates to a degree of tolerance to simulated near-future conditions of ocean acidification under laboratory conditions. In the summer of 2011, we conducted two experiments in the Exuma Cays, Bahamas, assessing the ability of Chondrilla nucula to adapt to “acidified”conditions. The first experiment examined sponges transplanted from a shallow reef site into a cave site (“Cave Hole”of variable pH (=8.2-7.7)), the reef immediately outside the cave (“Cave Reef ”(pH=8.2)), and back-transplanted to the reef of origin (“Control Site”(pH=8.2)). Non-polar lipid fraction ratios increased significantly at the Cave Hole and Control sites, but not at the Cave Reef site. However, total lipids increased at the Cave Reef site, while remaining unchanged at the Cave Hole and Control sites. Fluorescent yield, chlorophyll a, soluble protein, carbohydrate, refractory material, ash, and total energetic content were unchanged across the treatment sites, suggesting some acclimation to acidified conditions in the Cave Hole sponges after 2 months. In a second experiment, we utilized a subset of the sponges from the field experiment to examine simulated near-future climate change effects of low pH and high temperature under laboratory conditions. There were no significant effects of treatment across all biochemical constituents except for ash, which showed a significant site temperature interaction. The only other significant effects observed were site effects on the Cave Reef sponges, most likely due to elevated irradiance or other conditions in the field. These findings suggest that Chondrilla nucula is very tolerant of acidified conditions in the field and simulated near future conditions of ocean acidification and increased temperature.

▼ Les activités humaines menacent gravement la biodiversité. Sous le terme de changements globaux, la sur-exploitation des populations et la destruction/dégradation des habitats arrivent en tête de liste des facteurs responsables de l’érosion de la biodiversité. Le changement climatique gagne en magnitude et ajoute une pression supplémentaire sur les espèces. En réponse à l’augmentation des températures du globe, les communautés se réorganisent suite au déplacement de la distribution géographique des espèces vers les pôles. Mais l’accumulation des pressions anthropiques est susceptible de produire des effets d’interaction limitant l’ajustement des communautés au réchauffement climatique. Dans ce contexte critique, la biologie de la conservation a pour but de concilier les activités humaines avec la conservation de la biodiversité. Dans cette thèse j’ai cherché à comprendre comment l’accumulation des pressions anthropiques peut limiter l’ajustement des communautés au réchauffement climatique et à identifier les solutions qui pourraient être mises en place pour faciliter leur adaptation à ce réchauffement. J’ai pris pour modèle d’étude les espèces d’oiseaux d’eau hivernants dans les pays du bassin méditerranéen. Ces espèces emblématiques bénéficient d’un dénombrement international destiné à suivre leurs populations en réponse aux prélèvements par la chasse et à la dégradation des zones humides dont elles dépendent. La Méditerranée est une région fortement anthropisée où l’utilisation des ressources naturelles exerce d’importantes pressions sur les zones humides et leur biodiversité. En réponse, les pays ont différentes stratégies pour protéger ces écosystèmes, ce qui fait de cette région un plan expérimental intéressant pour mesurer l’impact dans changements globaux sur l’assemblage des espèces en fonction des mesures de conservation mises en oeuvre. En étudiant la réponse des communautés au réchauffement climatique sous un gradient de perte/dégradation d’habitat, je montre que l’ajustement des communautés est réduit, voire empêché, par la dégradation des zones humides. La Convention Ramsar vise justement à protéger les zones humides et leur biodiversité en maintenant une exploitation raisonnée des ressources naturelles. En évaluant l’effet de cette convention, je montre que son efficacité à conserver les populations d’oiseaux est dépendante de l’implémentation d’autres outils de protection, mais que son rôle est crucial dans les pays où la législation environnementale est faible. Enfin, j’évalue la capacité des conventions internationales à faciliter l’ajustement des communautés au réchauffement climatique grâce à la réduction des pressions qui s’exercent sur les populations. J’ai comparé la réponse des communautés entre les pays ayant ratifié la Convention de Berne, ceux ayant engagé son application strictement réglementaire sous la Directive Oiseaux (Union Européenne) et ceux n’ayant pas ratifié ces conventions. Le résultat est clair, plus la réglementation est précise et strictement réglementaire, plus les… Advisors/Committee Members: Jiguet, Frédéric (thesis director), Le Viol, Isabelle (thesis director), Galewski, Thomas (thesis director).

▼ Global climate models (GCMs) allow planetary scientists to test physical explanations for the formation and modification of climate‐related features on planetary bodies. This method of analysis depends upon two data sources: the GCM itself and a catalog of features under investigation. Integrating these two inputs provides a novel approach for testing climate‐related hypotheses for the formation of geological features of interest. An integration pipeline has been developed and a proof‐of‐concept application is tested on martian gullies, small erosional channels that may provide evidence for the recent flow of liquid water on the surface of Mars. ❧ The end‐to‐end GCM/data integration approach includes three primary components: (1) generation of a geodatabase with coded domains of all imaged gullies in the southern hemisphere of Mars from Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX) images, (2) incorporation into a Geographic Information System (GIS) framework of three GCM simulations that quantitatively predict surface conditions over one martian year under three different starting scenarios thought to have occurred in Mars’ recent geologic history, and (3) the integration of the geodatabase and GCM simulations to create dynamic visualizations of surface conditions over time and quantitative extraction of temperature/pressure values at gully sites to test whether or not liquid water could exist at these locations. ❧ The newly developed approach in this study demonstrates that the formation of gullies by liquid water is unlikely under present atmospheric conditions at most locations, but is predicted to have been achievable under more favorable orbital scenarios thought to have occurred in the recent geologic history of Mars. If these associations are valid, this increases the potential of primitive biology having existed in the recent history of Mars. More broadly, this technique represents a potentially valuable tool within a GIS framework for increasing confidence in data/model comparisons at global, hemispheric and regional scales.

▼ Air temperature is arguably the most important component of the mountain climate, and scientists have been studying it for centuries. Recently, researchers have used arrays of inexpensive temperature sensors to observe and understand temperature across the landscape. Much of this work has focused on landscape scale features as drivers of local air temperature's divergence from the greater regional air mass. To this end, we conducted an empirical orthogonal function analysis of gridded sea level pressure (SLP) from 1951-2014 for a spatial window including the eastern Pacific and western North America, which identified a mode of SLP variability that well describes synoptic weather in our study area. Pressure patterns and NCEP Reanalysis 1 derived regional air temperature were linked with a network of 40 temperature sensors spanning June 2013-2014 and GIS derived landscape variables to create hierarchical-mixed effects models of daily minimum and maximum temperature in the Snake Range. Minimum temperatures were mostly linked to elevation and the shape of the landscape, as cold air drainage is a common process in the Snake Range. Maximum temperature was largely related to insolation and elevation, with a large seasonal component. We used these models to create maps coinciding with daily Snake Range Sensor Network readings of minimum and maximum temperature in the Snake Range at 30 m spatial resolution. The map predictions were validated using an independent dataset and a leave-one-out cross validation. Overall mean absolute error for minimum and maximum temperature were 1.92 and 2.78 °C when calculated with the independent dataset and 1.84 and 2.21 °C when calculated using the leave-one-out cross validation. Together, these results show that temperature regimes in complex terrain vary considerably over short distances and short periods of time. It is possible to create a more realistic representation of maximum and minimum temperature for a particular study area, and the topoclimate of maximum and minimum temperature identified here can likely be applied to similar systems.

▼ The ability of global climate models (GCMs) to simulate climatological precipitation and other features of the hydrological cycle accurately is acceptable by some metrics, especially at large scales. Regionally, however, there can be substantial discrepancy in a multi-model ensemble, both in the annual or seasonal historical precipitation climatology as well as in end-of-century changes. Characterizing this intermodel spread and identifying leading uncertainty patterns and underlying physical pathways is important in constraining climatological biases and projections of future change. This dissertation looks at three aspects of precipitation uncertainty in ensembles.First, El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) teleconnections are analyzed in an atmosphere-only ensemble to gauge the ability of atmospheric components of GCMs to reproduce ENSO precipitation teleconnections. This serves as a test for how well models simulate the atmospheric response to sea surface temperature forcing in the immediate ENSO vicinity, as well as how accurately they reproduce the large-scale tropical-to-midlatitude dynamics leading to teleconnected precipitation. While individual models have difficulty in simulating the exact spatial pattern of teleconnections, they demonstrate skill in regional amplitude measures and sign agreement of the precipitation teleconnections at the grid point level, which lends value to the use of such measures in global warming projections.Next, objective spatial analysis techniques are applied to a fully-coupled GCM ensemble in order to visualize patterns of uncertainty in end-of-century precipitation changes and in the historical climatology. Global patterns are considered first, with the tropics exerting a clear dominance in intermodel spread, mainly within zones of deep convection or along convective margins. Regional domains are considered second, with a focus on the wintertime midlatitude Pacific storm track. A key region of end-of-century precipitation change uncertainty is identified at the terminus of the storm track, and large-scale circulation processes related to model differences in upper-level jet increases are found to play a role. These results help pinpoint a source of intermodel spread in projected precipitation changes along the North American west coast, especially for the Southern California region.Last, an existing perturbed physics ensemble is examined in order to understand the parameter sensitivity of climatological precipitation and other fields. This ensemble consists of integrations in which four parameters in the deep convection scheme were systematically varied. Models of parameter dependence are constructed for precipitation, and this process – termed metamodeling – is a computationally cheap alternative to brute-force sampling of parameter space in the GCM. A quadratic metamodel performs generally well but fails to capture sensitive regions of high nonlinearity for certain parameter ranges. A second metamodel is constructed by combining an approach from the engineering…

▼ Western Canada’s prairie region is extensively cultivated for agricultural production, which is a large source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Agroforestry systems are common land uses across Canada, which integrate trees into the agricultural landscape and could play a substantial role in sequestering carbon (C) and mitigating increases in atmospheric GHG concentrations. This thesis research quantified soil C storage and stability, and CO2, CH4, and N2O emissions in forest and herbland (areas without trees) components of three agroforestry systems (hedgerow, shelterbelt, and silvopasture) over two growing seasons (May through September in 2013 and 2014). The study evaluated 36 sites (12 hedgerows, 12 shelterbelts, and 12 silvopastures) in central Alberta, Canada, distributed along a soil/climate gradient of increasing moisture availability. Within each agroforestry system, the areas under forest consistently had greater total soil organic C (SOC) and SOC in most soil fractions separated by particle-size (up to 10 cm) and density (up to 30 cm) fractionation than in herbland areas. The C stored in this forest cover is more stable, so less of it is expected to be lost as CO2 when the climate warms in the future. Soil CO2 emission and temperature (r2= 0.53, p < 0.01) and CH4 uptake and soil water content (r2 = 0.38, p < 0.01) were significantly related in the studied land uses. Soil temperature and water content are dominant controls on N2O emissions, and together explained 71% of the variation in N2O emissions. Over the two seasons, forest soils had 3.4% greater CO2 emission, 36% higher CH4 uptake, and 66% lower N2O emission than adjacent herbland soils. As a result, forested areas had a smaller global warming potential (129) than their herbland counterpart (157 kg CO2 ha-1) based on all three GHGs. Autotrophic respiration contributed more to total respiration in the forest than in herbland (p < 0.01), that, in turn, may be responsible for the high CO2 emissions in the forest. The SOC stock in the bulk soil (up to 30 cm) was greater in the silvopasture (201) than in either the hedgerow (178) or shelterbelt system (162 Mg C ha-1). Across particle-size fractions, SOC in the more stable fine fraction was in the order of: hedgerow >shelterbelt > silvopasture system. Similarly, the largest pool of SOC in the more stable heavy density fraction of both the 0-10 and 10-30 cm depth classes was in the shelterbelt (33 and 35 Mg ha-1, respectively), while the least SOC was in the silvopasture system (26 and 20 Mg ha-1, respectively). While ranked emissions of CO2 were silvopasture > hedgerow > shelterbelt, soils in the silvopasture system had 15% greater CH4 uptake and 44% lower N2O emission rates compared with the other two agroforestry systems. Silvopasture system can provide greater potential to induce soil C sequestration because it leads to a larger reduction in heterotrophic respiration (p = 0.03) than the hedgerow and shelterbelt systems. Overall, opportunities appear to exist for enhancing soil C…
