Increasing meteorological drought under climate change reduces terrestrial ecosystem productivity and carbon storage

Z Zeng, W Wu, Y Li, C Huang, X Zhang, J Peñuelas… - One Earth, 2023 - cell.com
The terrestrial biosphere absorbs about 30% of the CO 2 emitted by human activities each
year. The persistence of such a carbon sink, however, depends on vegetation responses to …

No growth stimulation of tropical trees by 150 years of CO2 fertilization but water-use efficiency increased

P Van Der Sleen, P Groenendijk, M Vlam… - Nature …, 2015 - nature.com
The biomass of undisturbed tropical forests has likely increased in the past few decades,,
probably as a result of accelerated tree growth. Higher CO2 levels are expected to raise …

MORE EFFICIENT PLANTS: A Consequence of Rising Atmospheric CO2?

BG Drake, MA Gonzàlez-Meler… - Annual review of plant …, 1997 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract The primary effect of the response of plants to rising atmospheric CO2 (Ca) is to
increase resource use efficiency. Elevated Ca reduces stomatal conductance and …

Increasingly important role of atmospheric aridity on Tibetan alpine grasslands

J Ding, T Yang, Y Zhao, D Liu, X Wang… - Geophysical …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
Pronounced warming occurring on the Tibetan Plateau is expected to stimulate alpine
grassland growth but could also increase atmospheric aridity that limits photosynthesis. But …

A meta-analysis of elevated CO2 effects on woody plant mass, form, and physiology

PS Curtis, X Wang - Oecologia, 1998 - Springer
Quantitative integration of the literature on the effect of elevated CO 2 on woody plants is
