From Lilliput to Brobdingnag: Extending Models of Mycorrhizal Function across Scales (2006, background): “Similarly, mycorrhizal function models can be used to inform global carbon cycle models for improved predictions of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) change, and to evaluate the role of mycorrhizae for sequestering CO2 and thereby slowing the rate of the increase in atmospheric CO2 (Li et al. 2003).”
Influence of Environmental Variability on Root Dynamics in Northern Forests (2009, background): “Biomass partitioning is likely regulated by both ontogenetic and environment influences to a certain degree (Farrar and Jones, 2000; Hutchings and John, 2004) and variable among plant functional groups (Bond-Lamberty et al., 2002; Li et al., 2003; Peng and Dang, 2003; Niklas, 2005).”
General allometric equations and biomass allocation of Pinus massoniana trees on a regional scale in southern China (2011, background): “…improvement of root biomass estimates in allometric equations could therefore provide a better understanding of biomass and carbon allocation and ultimately help to accurately assess forest carbon sequestration potential (Kurz et al. 1996; Cairns et al. 1997; Li et al. 2003; Peichl and Arain 2007).”
