Seedling survival in a northern temperate forest understory in increased by elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide and atmospheric nitrogen deposition

Seedling survival in a northern temperate forest understory in increased by elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide and atmospheric nitrogen deposition

We tested the main and interactive effects of elevated carbon dioxide concentration ([CO2]), nitrogen (N), and light availability on leaf photosynthesis, and plant growth and survival in understory seedlings grown in an N‐limited northern hardwood forest. For two growing seasons, we exposed six spec...
