What is Tree Recovery from Drought: Sink Control about?

The study investigates how drought affects carbon balances in beech trees, focusing on the role of belowground sink control during drought and recovery periods. It finds that during drought, net photosynthesis and soil respiration decrease, with trees prioritizing assimilate allocation to roots to restore root functions. After drought release, soil respiration recovers faster than photosynthesis, indicating that root restoration is crucial for ecosystem resilience to drought.
