A synthesis of ecosystem aboveground productivity and its process variables under simulated drought stress

Projected increases in drought duration and intensity under climate change considerably affect aboveground productivity (ANPP) and associated process variables (photosynthesis rates ( P n ), stomatal conductance ( g s ), soil respiration ( R s) and soil water content (SWC)). Although ANPP has been extensively studied across the ecosystems, there is a little consensus on how the spatiotemporal patterns of ANPP will be altered with increasing...
