Has the impact of rising CO2 on plants been exaggerated by meta-analysis of free air CO2 enrichment studies?

Meta-analysis is extensively used to synthesise the results of free air CO2 enrichment (FACE) studies to produce an average effect size, which is then used to model likely plant response to rising [CO2]. The efficacy of meta-analysis is reliant upon the use of data that characterises the range of r...
