Evergreen species are widespread across the globe, representing two major plant functional
forms in terrestrial models. We reviewed and analysed the responses of photosynthesis and …

Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations may warm northern latitudes up to
8° C by the end of the century. Boreal forests play a large role in the global carbon cycle …

The Q 10 temperature coefficient, which is widely used in scientific literature, is a measure of
the temperature sensitivity of chemical reaction rates or biological processes. However, the …

Warming shifts the thermal optimum of net photosynthesis (T optA) to higher temperatures.
However, our knowledge of this shift is mainly derived from seedlings grown in greenhouses …

Summary We present the Fast Assimilation‐Temperature Response (FAsTeR) method, a
new method for measuring plant assimilation‐temperature (AT) response that reduces …

比叶质量(LMA) 是叶片经济型谱中最基础的叶功能性状, 也是重要的复合型结构参数. LMA
不仅与植物的许多生理反应密切相关, 而且能定量测定光合产物在单位叶面积的投入 …

Increasing temperatures and atmospheric CO 2 concentrations will affect tree carbon fluxes,
generating potential feedbacks between forests and the global climate system. We studied …

Short-term acclimation and long-term adaptation represent two ways in which forest trees
can respond to changes in temperature. Yet, the relative contribution of thermal acclimation …

Abstract Background and Aims Knowledge of thermal acclimation of physiological
processes of boreal tree species is necessary to determine their ability to adapt to predicted …
