20 kwi 2023 · Using two models, we show that leaf angle variations have significant impacts on not only canopy-scale photosynthesis, energy balance and water use efficiency but also light competition within the forest canopy.
Leaf angle, the angle between the leaf normal and the zenith (Figure 1, Box 1 ), is a key leaf trait associated with light interception, photosynthesis, energy balance and competition among individual plants (Anten, 2005; Nilsen & Forseth, 2018; Ross, 1980 ).
16 gru 2017 · Leaf angle is defined as the inclination between the midrib of the leaf blade and the vertical stem of a plant. This trait has been identified as a key component in the development of high-yielding varieties of cereal species, particularly maize, rice, wheat, and sorghum.
1 lut 2019 · For individual leaves, leaf angle consists of leaf inclination angle and leaf azimuth angle. For the whole canopy, leaf angle distribution (LAD) is used to describe the probability of all leaves orientating at different directions.
20 kwi 2023 · Diagram of leaf and solar angles. θl is the leaf inclination angle from horizontal, equivalent to the angle between the leaf normal and the zenith (the green arrow is the leaf normal); θs is...
1 cze 2021 · Leaf angle distribution (LAD) in forest canopies affects estimates of leaf area, light interception, and global‐scale photosynthesis, but is often simplified to a single theoretical...
6 lis 2017 · Leaf angle, defined as the inclination between the leaf blade midrib and the stem, is one of the most important canopy architecture parameters that influence light interception, photosynthetic efficiency, and planting density.
