Stable isotopes in tree rings: towards a mechanistic understanding of isotope fractionation and mixing processes from the leaves to the wood
The mechanistic understanding of isotope fractionation processes is increasing but we still
lack detailed knowledge of the processes that determine the isotopic composition of the tree …

Atmospheric evidence for a global secular increase in carbon isotopic discrimination of land photosynthesis
A decrease in the 13C/12C ratio of atmospheric CO2 has been documented by direct
observations since 1978 and from ice core measurements since the industrial revolution …

The effect of atmospheric CO2 concentration on carbon isotope fractionation in C3 land plants
BA Schubert, AH Jahren - Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2012 - Elsevier
Because atmospheric carbon dioxide is the ultimate source of all land-plant carbon, workers
have suggested that pCO2 level may exert control over the amount of 13C incorporated into …

Improvement of water and light availability after thinning at a xeric site: which matters more? A dual isotope approach
Thinning fosters individual tree growth by increasing the availability of water, light and
nutrients. At sites where water rather than light is limiting, thinning also enhances soil …
