Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how drought affects the growth and non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) levels of a slow-growing conifer in southern Chile during two extreme summer droughts.
- Researchers compared two sites with different rainfall patterns and examined the NSC levels of saplings and adults one and two years after the drought.
- Results indicated higher NSC levels and lower seasonal remobilization in the first year post-drought, supporting the idea of sink limitation rather than source limitation for growth reduction.
