Carbon Stock Dynamics in Rubber Plantations Along an Elevational Gradient in Tropical China
Carbon (C) losses due to the conversion of natural forests adversely affect the biotic and abiotic components of terrestrial ecosystems. In tropical China, rubber cultivation often extends from its traditional range to elevations of up to 1400 m. However,
