A young plantation have a high npp/gpp ratio as compared to a mature tropical forest because of the following reasons:
- In Ecology , there is a synthesis of organic compounds from aqueous or atmospheric carbon dioxide which principally depends upon the photosynthesis process where light is used as a source of energy.
- It can also be done through other method where inorganic chemical compounds oxidizes or reduces as a source of energy in the process named chemo synthesis .
- where gpp (Gross Primary Production) is the partitioned of net primary Production for the synthesis of secondary compounds.
- To satablize the npp research has been made that confirmed existence of pervasive acclimation mechanism.
