Strongly Active Responses of <i>Pinus tabuliformis</i> Carr. and <i>Sophora viciifolia</i> Hance to CO<sub>2</sub> Enrichment and Drought Revealed by Tree-Ring Isotopes on the Central China Loess Plateau

Strongly Active Responses of <i>Pinus tabuliformis</i> Carr. and <i>Sophora viciifolia</i> Hance to CO<sub>2</sub> Enrichment and Drought Revealed by Tree-Ring Isotopes on the Central China Loess Plateau

Understanding the water-use strategy of human-planted species used in response to climate change is essential to optimize afforestation programs in dry regions. Since 2000, trees on the central Loess Plateau have experienced a shift from strengthening drought to weakening drought. In this study, we...
