- •
Leaf wax in a tropical forest transect across 3.5 km elevation gain studied.
- •
Average chain length of n-alkanes was insensitive to temperature.
- •
n-Alkane concentration increased with elevation, similar to leaf mass/area.
- •
Concept of net primary production of n-alkanes introduced.
- •
Alkane productivity higher in the montane cloud forest than lowland rainforest.
