(1989) suggested that at higher elevations plants exhibit unusually high carboxylation capacities in relation to their stomatal conductances. This would decrease ci/ca leading to a decrease in D over elevation. Our data support this hypothesis. We observed an increase in foliar nitrogen over elevation for both species (Fig. 4). Because the majority of leaf nitrogen is bound in photosynthetic enzymes, this implies that photosynthetic capacity may also be increasing over these transects.}, interhash = {a18693e90a6504e30c1fd1f3edbfdf92}, intrahash = {a047ef46d6484213362c4cff853dc067}, journal = {Oecologia}, keywords = {bibtex-import, citeulikeExport environmental, gradients, isotopes, nitrogen, unread}, pages = {362--367}, posted-at = {2007-07-31 07:04:39}, priority = {2}, timestamp = {2019-03-31T01:16:26.000+0100}, title = {{Leaf carbon isotope discrimination and nitrogen content for riparian trees along elevational transects}}, volume = 109, year = 1997 }
