DOI: 10.1007/s10021-019-00364-y
Abstract: Root production is known to contribute at least 50% of total net primary production in dryland ecosystems, yet few studies have addressed seasonal dynamics of root production or the belowground response to altered resource availability.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16701
Abstract: Mangroves are among the most carbon‐dense ecosystems worldwide. Most of the carbon in mangroves is found belowground, and root production might be an important control of carbon accumulation, but has been rarely quantified and understood… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.623722
Abstract: Long-term minirhizotron observations of absorptive fine roots provide insights into seasonal patterns of belowground root production and carbon dynamics. Our objective was to compare root dynamics over time across mature individuals of 11 temperate trees… read more here.
