  1. A Simple Production Efficiency Model Ranga Myneni Boston University rmyneni@bu.edu Willem de Kooning (1904-1997) A Tree in Naples 1/18

  2. About • A simple model to calculate Net Primary Production • We shall call this a Production Efficiency Model (PEM) • Applicable to Coarse Spatial Resolutions (example, 0.5x0.5 degree) • Applicable to Coarse Temporal Resolutions (example, monthly) • Used to generate MODIS NPP Products • Reference: Heinsch et al., 2003, User’s Guide GPP and NPP (MOD17A2/A3) Products NASA MODIS Land Algorithm 2/18

  3. Background • Monteith first proposed a conservative relationship between - • Absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (APAR) and • Net Primary Production (NPP). • APAR depends on • the geographic and seasonal variability of day length and incident radiation, as modified by cloud cover and aerosols, and • the amount and geometry of displayed leaf material. • This relation combines the meteorological constraint of available sunlight at a site with the ecological constraint of the amount of leaf-area capable of absorbing that solar energy. 3/18

  4. The PEM Model Annual NPP = Annual GPP - Annual Autotrophic_Respiration (kg C/m2/yr)(kg C/m2/yr)(kg C/m2/yr) Annual GPP= Annual Sum of Daily GPP (kg C/m2/yr)(kg C/m2/day) Step 1: Evaluate Daily GPP, save it and sum it over the year Step 2: Then worry about the Annual Autotrophic_Respiration term 4/18

  5. Daily GPP Daily GPP =   APAR (kg C/m2/day)(kg C/MJ)(Mega Joules/m2/day) APAR= IPAR  FPAR (MJ/m2/day)(MJ/m2/day)(dimensionless) IPAR= 0.45 SWRAD (MJ/m2/day)(MJ/m2/day)  Efficiency of APAR conversion to GPP APAR PAR absorbed by vegetation IPAR PAR incident on the vegetation FPAR Fraction of IPAR absorbed by vegetation (from satellites) SWRAD Incident shortwave solar radiation (measured) PAR Photosynthetically Active Radiation (400-700 nm) 5/18

  6. The PAR conversion efficiency, ε, varies widely with different vegetation types. There are two principle sources of this variability. First, with any vegetation, some photosynthesis is immediately used for maintenance respiration. For the annual crop plants, these respiration costs are minimal, so ε is typically around 2 gC/MJ. Respiration costs, however, increase with the size of perennial plants. Published ε values for woody vegetation are much lower, from about 0.2 to 1.5 gC/MJ – this could be due to respiration of living cells in the sapwood of woody stems. The second source of variability in ε is attributed to suboptimal climatic conditions. Evergreen vegetation such as conifer trees or shrubs absorb PAR during the non-growing season, yet sub-freezing temperatures stop photosynthesis because leaf stomata are forced to close. Additionally, high vapor pressure deficits, > 2000Pa, have been shown to induce stomatal closure in many species, thereby reducing photosynthetic activity. These biome- and climate-induced ranges of ε must be taken into account in any global modeling of NPP. Efficiency-01 6/18
