Abstract
Our extensive, multi-year regional study reveals that prolonged exposure to heavy wildfire smoke results in significant and persistent reductions in non-structural carbohydrates in trees, and that these effects continue for months following the fires (including into the dormancy period and next season’s bloom). Furthermore, trees that are subjected to high levels of smoke exhibit substantial yield reductions in the following year.
