Warming-induced increase in carbon uptake is linked to earlier spring phenology in temperate and boreal forests

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

This advancement in SOS have been shown to extend the duration of the growing season and increase carbon uptake in forest ecosystems. An increase in temperature during the previous growing season might increase photosynthesis in cold temperate and boreal regions, and advance SOS in the current year. Using long-term phenological observations, digital camera imagery, remote-sensing and flux data across temperate and boreal forests in the Northern Hemisphere (Fig 1), the authors analyzed the effect of warming during the previous growing season on SOS. The authors show that timing of SOS in current . . .
