Net Primary Production Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Net Primary Production = Gross Primary Production-Respiratory Loss
NPP = I_biomass-R_loss
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Net Primary Production - (Measured in Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter) - Net Primary Production is a measure of the increment of new organic material to the ecosystem from photosynthesis.
Gross Primary Production - (Measured in Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter) - Gross Primary production is the biomass produced by organisms over a period of time.
Respiratory Loss - (Measured in 1 Per Second) - Respiratory Loss is the loss of fluids and electrolytes through the act of breathing.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Gross Primary Production: 100 Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter --> 100 Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter No Conversion Required
Respiratory Loss: 9.2 1 Per Second --> 9.2 1 Per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

NPP = I_biomass-R_loss --> 100-9.2

Evaluating ... ...

NPP = 90.8

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

90.8 Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

90.8 Biomass Kilogram per Square Meter <-- Net Primary Production

Drake's Equation for Number of Planets with Intelligent Communicative Extraterrestrial Life

Go Number of Communicative Civilizations = (Rate of Formation of Suitable Stars*Fraction of Those Stars with Planets*Fraction of Earth sized Planets where Life Grows*Number of Earth-sized Worlds per Planetary System*Fraction of Life Sites where Intelligence Develops*Fraction of Communicative Planets*Lifetime of Communicating Civilizations)

Instantaneous Growth Rates of Predator using Lotka Volterra Equation

Go Instantaneous Growth Rates of Predator = (Conversion Efficiency into Offspring*Attack Rate of Predator*Number of Predators or Consumers*Number of Prey)-(Predator or Consumer Mortality Rate*Number of Predators or Consumers)

Instantaneous Growth Rates of Prey using Lotka Volterra Equation

Go Instantaneous Growth Rates of Prey = ((Growth Rate of Prey*Number of Prey)-(Attack Rate of Predator*Number of Predators or Consumers*Number of Prey))

Human Impact on Environment by IPAT Equation

Go Human Impact on Environment = (Population*Affluence*Technology)

Population Count by IPAT Equation

Go Population = Human Impact on Environment/(Affluence*Technology)

Technology Count by IPAT Equation

Go Technology = Human Impact on Environment/(Affluence*Population)

Affluence Count by IPAT Equation

Go Affluence = Human Impact on Environment/(Technology*Population)

What is Ecoforestry?

Ecoforesty has been defined as selection forestry or restoration forestry. The main idea of ecoforestry is to maintain or restore the forest to standards where the forest may still be harvested for products on a sustainable basis. Ecoforestry is forestry that emphasizes holistic practices which strive to protect and restore ecosystems rather than maximize economic productivity.

How to Calculate Net Primary Production?

Net Primary Production calculator uses Net Primary Production = Gross Primary Production-Respiratory Loss to calculate the Net Primary Production, The Net Primary Production formula is defined as the synthesis of organic compounds from atmospheric or aqueous carbon dioxide. It principally occurs through the process of photosynthesis, which uses light as its source of energy, but it also occurs through chemosynthesis, which uses the oxidation or reduction of inorganic chemical compounds as its source of energy. Net Primary Production is denoted by NPP symbol.

How to calculate Net Primary Production using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Net Primary Production, enter Gross Primary Production (I_biomass) & Respiratory Loss (R_loss) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Net Primary Production calculation can be explained with given input values -> 90.8 = 100-9.2.

FAQ

What is Net Primary Production?

The Net Primary Production formula is defined as the synthesis of organic compounds from atmospheric or aqueous carbon dioxide. It principally occurs through the process of photosynthesis, which uses light as its source of energy, but it also occurs through chemosynthesis, which uses the oxidation or reduction of inorganic chemical compounds as its source of energy and is represented as NPP = I_biomass-R_loss or Net Primary Production = Gross Primary Production-Respiratory Loss. Gross Primary production is the biomass produced by organisms over a period of time & Respiratory Loss is the loss of fluids and electrolytes through the act of breathing.
