At the summer of 2016, I started my master’s degree project on carbon and water coupling at leaf and individual tree levels in a natural young lodgepole pine stand in southern interior of British Columbia, Canada. (Click here for more detailed introduction on this project).\u00a0<\/a>I have kept track of my research progresses in the journal. I believe that every effort pays off!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
