Enhanced growth after extreme wetness compensates for post-drought carbon loss in dry forests, Published online: 14 January 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-08229-z

Increased extreme wet and dry years and forest growth loss from drought legacy effect lead to a question whether wetness events can conversely compensate for this loss. Here the authors report substantial growth enhancement after extreme wetness compensating for drought-induced growth loss globally.
