Relationships Between Vegetation Carbon Use Efficiency and Climatic Factors on the Tibetan Plateau
Abstract. Temperature, water, and sunshine conditions affect vegetation efficiency in terms of carbon gain. Responses of annual carbon use efficiency (CUE; i.e., the ratio of net primary production to gross primary production) to annual temperature, precipitation, vapor pressure, relative humidity, and sunshine were examined from 2000 to 2012 on the ...

Factors influencing carbon and water use efficiency in changing environments
IntroductionVegetation plays a crucial role in terrestrial ecosystems, acting as a vital link connecting the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere in terms of energy flow and material cycling.

Abstract NPP/GPP ratio is related to the allocation of photosynthesized products by plants. The examination of this ratio and its exterior controlling factors are very critical for understanding the carbon cycle. China covers a large area and contains diverse ecosystems and climate conditions, while, extensive studies of the NPP/GPP ratio and its ...

After extensive ecological restoration in the karst region of Southwestern China, a potential zone for achieving “carbon neutrality” has emerged, despite facing water scarcity. We analyzed the dynamics of water use efficiency (WUE) and its correlations with soil moisture (SM) and leaf area index (LAI) from 2003 to 2017 using PML-V2 data and multiple ...
