Evidence for strong seasonality in the carbon storage and carbon use efficiency of an Amazonian forest [PDF]

, 2014
The relative contribution of gross primary production and ecosystem respiration to seasonal changes in the net carbon flux of tropical forests remains poorly quantified by both modelling and field studies.
