RELATIONSHIPS AMONG MAXIMUM STOMATAL CONDUCTANCE, ECOSYSTEM SURFACE CONDUCTANCE, CARBON ASSIMILATION RATE, AND PLANT NITROGEN NUTRITION: A Global Ecology Scaling Exercise
This review provides a theoretical framework and global maps for relations between nitrogen-(N)-nutrition and stomatal conductance, gs' at the leaf scale and flUXe!1 of water va...
GENERALITY OF LEAF TRAIT RELATIONSHIPS: A TEST ACROSS SIX BIOMES
Convergence in interspecific leaf trait relationships across diverse taxonomic groups and biomes would have important evolutionary and ecological implications. Such convergence ...
Research review. Components of leaf dry mass per area – thickness and density – alter leaf photosynthetic capacity in reverse directions in woody plants
The relationships of foliage assimilation capacity per unit area ( P P max ) with leaf dry mass per unit area (LMA) and nitrogen content per unit area ( N P ) differ between spe...
Leaf Life‐Span in Relation to Leaf, Plant, and Stand Characteristics among Diverse Ecosystems
Variation in leaf life—span has long been considered of ecological significance.Despite this, quantitative evaluation of the relationships between leaf life—span and other plant...
Diffusion of CO<sub>2</sub>and other gases inside leaves
SUMMARY Diffusion of CO 2 in the intercellular airspaces of the leaf mesophyll is one of the many processes that can limit photosynthetic carbon assimilation there. This limitat...
