Accelerating tree growth in recent years has been accompanied by a reduction in tree lifespan, which could eventually neutralize part of the increase in net uptake of carbon dioxide (CO 2). This trade ...

Fine roots (≤2 mm in diameter), the main conduit for resource uptake in the plant-soil continuum, are one of the most metabolically active organs of trees. Due to the difficulty of directly observing ...

For the first time scientists have provided clear evidence that tropical tree lifespan decreases above a critical temperature threshold. For the first time scientists have provided clear evidence that ...
