AB: The Fluxnet-Canada Research Network was a multi-year, inter-disciplinary study of the influences of inter-annual climate variability and disturbance on the carbon, water and energy cycles of the north temperate and southern boreal forests. The network, which ran from 2002 to 2007, was built on work that began during the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (1994-1996), continued as the Boreal Ecosystem Research and Monitoring Sites program (1997 to present), and now continues as the Canadian Carbon Program (2007-2010). The network comprises an east-west transect of flux stations, each with flux towers in mature as well as younger forest stands following disturbance by fire or harvesting. We present results from an ongoing synthesis study of the climatic and biophysical factors that control interannual variability in the forest-atmosphere exchanges of carbon, water and energy.
