Forest health, heart rot disease, and their impact on the source of carbon-based greenhouse gas fluxes. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Forest health is critical for sustaining ecosystem services like carbon sequestration. Heart rot, a widespread disease in upland northern hardwood forests, may affect greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes, but its impacts remain poorly measured. Using non‐destructive tomography and direct gas flux measurements, we quantified the effects of heart ...
