Assessing Spatial Patterns of Carbon and Nutrient Dynamics in Catchments of Complex Topography

Abstract The topography of a landscape regulates the spatial distribution of water and energy fluxes, which are main drivers of vegetation and soil carbon and nutrient dynamics. Despite the recognized role of topography in mediating such processes, quantifying and predicting the spatial distribution...
