Simulating the spatial pattern of annual mean evapotranspiration of a heterogeneous landscape
异质景观年平均蒸发量空间格局模拟

Understanding how landscape pattern affects ecosystem processes is a central issue in landscape ecology. In this study, we examined the effects of landscape heterogeneity on ecosystem evapotranspiration in the Changbai Mountain Nature Reserve in northeastern China, using a process-based, spatially explicit model, EPPML (Ecosystem Productivity Process-based Model at Landscape Scale). We developed EPPML to investigate the spatiotemporal patterns of carbon and water cycling and ecosystem productivity, and th...
