Predicting the response of plants to increasing carbon dioxide: a critique of plant growth models
JF Reynolds, B Acock - Ecological Modelling, 1985 - Elsevier
It is widely recognized that increasing global carbon dioxide concentration in the
atmosphere may alter the growth of plants. This has lead to speculation about the long-term
impact of rising CO 2 on agricultural productivity and on natural ecosystems, eg shifts in
native species distributions and sequestering of carbon in forests. In this paper we critique
some existing plant growth models with regard to their potential for predicting and evaluating
possible scenarios of vegetation response to elevated CO 2 levels. To facilitate this, we …
