“…In view of this increase in performance and productivity promoted by high [CO 2 ], even in the presence of abiotic stresses, should we really be concerned about the dynamics of the distribution and survival of forest species under a climate change scenario? The answer to this question is extremely complex because the beneficial effects of high [CO 2 ] found in some studies (Drake et al, 2011;Idso & Kimbal, 1997;Oliveira et al, 2016;Pérez-Jiménez, Hernández-Munuera, Piñero, López-Ortega, & del Amor, 2018;Radoglou & Jarvis, 1990;Rodrigues et al, 2016;Roy et al, 2016;Swann et al, 2016;Yu et al, 2014) are in direct contrast to the results of several other reports (Calvo et al, 2017;Clark, Clark, & Oberbauer, 2010;Faralli et al, 2017;Feeley, Joseph Wright, Nur Supardi, Kassim, & Davies, 2007;Voelker et al, 2017).…”
