    The relationship between the stable carbon isotope composition of needle bulk material, starch, and tree rings in Picea abies

    We investigated the relationship between the δ13C signal in current-year and 1-year-old needle bulk material, starch extracts, and early- or late-wood in mature spruce trees (Picea abies) to identify the modifyin...

    Linking stable oxygen and carbon isotopes with stomatal conductance and photosynthetic capacity: a conceptual model

    Based on measurements of δ18O and δ13C in organic matter of C3-plants, we have developed a conceptual model that gives insight into the relationship between stomatal conductance (g l) and photosynthetic capacity...

    Estimating the uptake of traffic-derived NO2 from 15N abundance in Norway spruce needles

    The 15N ratio of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emitted from vehicles, measured in the air adjacent to a highway in the Swiss Middle Land, was very high [δ15N(NO2) = +5.7‰]. This high 15N abundance was used to estimate l...
