Different determinants of radiation use efficiency in cold and temperate forests

Aim To verify which vegetation and environmental factors are the most important in determining the spatial and temporal variability of average and maximum values of radiation use efficiency (RUE ann and RUE max , respectively) of cold and temperate forests. Location Forty‐eight cold and temperate forests distributed across the Northern Hemisphere. Major taxa studied Evergreen and deciduous trees. Time period 2000–2011. Methods We analysed the...
