INTEGRATING LANDSCAPE SYSTEM AND META-ECOSYSTEM FRAMEWORKS TO ADVANCE THE UNDERSTANDING OF ECOSYSTEM FUNCTION IN HETEROGENEOUS LANDSCAPES: AN ANALYSIS ON THE CARBON FLUXES IN THE NORTHERN HIGHLANDS LAKE DISTRICT (NHLD) OF WISCONSIN AND MICHIGAN.

Integrating landscape system and meta-ecosystem frameworks to advance the understanding of ecosystem function in heterogeneous landscapes: An analysis on the carbon fluxes in the Northern Highlands Lake District (NHLD) of Wisconsin and Michigan.

The successful integration of ecosystem ecology with landscape ecology would be conducive to understanding how landscapes function.There have been several attempts at this, with two main approaches: (1) an ecosystem-based approach, such as the meta-ecosystem framework and (2) a landscape-based approach, such as the landscape system framework.These
