Temporal variability of the NPP-GPP ratio at seasonal and interannual time scales in a temperate beech forest
The allocation of carbon (C) taken up by the tree canopy for respiration and production of tree organs with different construction and maintenance costs, life span and decomposition rate, crucially affects the residence time of C in forests and their C cycling rate. The carbon-use efficiency, or rat...
