Decline in Net Ecosystem Productivity Following Canopy Transition to Late-Succession Forests

Boreal forests are critical to the global carbon (C) cycle. Despite recent advances in our understanding of boreal C budgets, C dynamics during compositional transition to late-succession forests remain unclear. Using a carefully replicated 203-year chronosequence, we examined long-term patterns of...
