摘要: Abstract An increasing number of field experiments have been initiated worldwide to study simulated effects global warming. To experimentally determine how tall, mature trees respond warming, we developed a new technique that heated canopy-level branches with electric heating cables. Using canopy crane, attached cables top Quercus crispula Blume (18–20 m in height) trees; shoot temperature was elevated 5 °C above ambient. Branch warming extended the length growing season leaves by later leaf fall. Moreover, branch increased acorn production. Application this should lead better understanding
