“…For instance, in addition to the general response of forests shifting from carbon sinks to carbon sources in low, mesic sites (Ciais et al, ; Reichstein et al, ), at high elevations, enhanced vegetation growth is driven by high temperatures (Jolly et al, ). Differences among forest types/species were also found either in the extent of damage (for instance Bonal, Pau, Toigo, Granier, & Perot, ; Bréda, Huc, Granier, & Dreyer, ) or recovery rate (He et al, ; but see also Pretzsch, Schütze, & Uhl, for mixed vs. pure forest stands comparison) following the 2003 European drought.…”
