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 …

Leaf day respiration: low CO2 flux but high significance for metabolism and carbon balance
It has been 75 yr since leaf respiratory metabolism in the light (day respiration) was
identified as a low‐flux metabolic pathway that accompanies photosynthesis. In principle, it …
