Temporal variability in tree responses to elevated atmospheric CO2

F Lauriks, RL Salomón, K Steppe - Plant, Cell & Environment, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
At leaf level, elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration (eCO2) results in stimulation of
carbon net assimilation and reduction of stomatal conductance. However, a comprehensive …
