Explaining biomass growth of tropical canopy trees: the importance of sapwood.

Oecologia - 1 Apr 2015

van der Sande Masha T, Zuidema Pieter A, Sterck Frank

Abstract excerpt

Tropical forests are important in worldwide carbon (C) storage and sequestration. C sequestration of these forests may especially be determined by the growth of canopy trees. However, the factors driving variation in growth among such large individuals remain largely unclear. We evaluate how crow...
