DOI: 10.1111/gcb.14165
Abstract: Forests sequester large amounts of carbon annually and are integral in buffering against effects of global change. Increasing atmospheric CO2 may enhance photosynthesis and/or decrease stomatal conductance (gs ) thereby enhancing intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE),… read more here.
