Growth duration is a better predictor of stem increment than carbon supply in a {Mediterranean} oak forest: implications for assessing forest productivity under climate change

Understanding whether tree growth is limited by carbon gain (source limitation) or by the direct effect of environmental factors such as water deficit or temperature (sink limitation) is crucial for improving projections of the effects of climate change on forest productivity.
