Root:Shoot Ratio and Specific Leaf Area Along an Elevational Gradient in the Peruvian Andes

Root:Shoot Ratio and Specific Leaf Area Along an Elevational Gradient in the Peruvian Andes

Andean montane forests are one of the most diverse ecosystems on Earth, but are also highly vulnerable to climate change. Therefore, the link between plant distribution and ecosystem productivity is a critical point to investigate in these ecosystems. Are the patterns in productivity observed in mon...
