Regional disparities in the CO2 fertilization effect and implications for crop yields

Although crop yield generally responds positively to increased atmospheric CO _2 concentration ([CO _2 ]), the response depends on the species and environmental conditions. Thus, even though global [CO _2 ] is increasing roughly uniformly, regional yield response to increased [CO _2 ] will vary due...
