Mature forests play an essential role in addressing climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and storing it in new wood, according to a recent study. The research reveals that older trees significantly increase their woody biomass production in response to higher atmospheric CO2 levels, challenging the existing belief that mature forests cannot adapt to elevated
