To better assess land-climate interactions in NH under future change scenarios, we are measuring greenhouse gas, energy, and radiation fluxes across 4 different land cover types that broadly represent the NH landscape: forest, field/pasture, corn/agriculture, residential/paved.  In the simplest terms, these fluxes can be thought of as breathing (respiring CO.
