Drought‐induced increase in tree mortality and corresponding decrease in the carbon sink capacity of Canada's boreal forests from 1970 to 2020
Canada's boreal forests, which occupy approximately 30% of boreal forests worldwide, play
an important role in the global carbon budget. However, there is little quantitative information …

A re-evaluation of carbon storage in trees lends greater support for carbon limitation to growth
E Wiley, B Helliker - New Phytologist, 2012 - JSTOR
We still have a poor understanding of what limits tree growth under many conditions. In
general, tree growth can be limited by the availability of carbon within the plant (carbon …

Identifying differences in carbohydrate dynamics of seedlings and mature trees to improve carbon allocation in models for trees and forests
Carbohydrates play a central role in plant functioning because they are building blocks and
energy carriers for plant metabolic processes. Because plants are sessile organisms and …
