Within-canopy variation in photosynthetic capacity, SLA and foliar N in temperate broad-leaved trees with contrasting shade tolerance (2014, methodology): “…between height in the canopy and relative irradiance was treated as being exponential (Monsi and Saeki 1953), that one between RI and SLA as being hyperbolic (e.g. Niinemets et al. 2004), and that one between SLA and Na or parameters of arearelated photosynthetic capacity as hyperbolic as well.”
Characterizing the Seasonal Dynamics of Plant Community Photosynthesis Across a Range of Vegetation Types (2009, background): “For example, in deciduous canopies, both leaf area index (LAI) and leaf photosynthetic capacities increase in spring and remain relatively stable in the middle of the growing season and then decrease in fall (Wilson et al. 2000 ; Hikosaka 2003 ; Niinemets et al. 2004 ) . Many understory plant speci”
Photosynthetic and structural characteristics of canopy and shrub trees in a cool-temperate deciduous broadleaved forest: Implication to the ecosystem carbon gain (2005, background): “Since the development of photosynthetic capacity in a sunny environment (i.e., canopy top) requires high light incidence (e.g., Niinemets et al., 2004), the prolonged rainy/cloudy sky should have suppressed the physiological development at the canopy top until mid August (Figs.”
A macroscope in the redwoods (2005, background): “There is, of course, a wealth of biological studies that used small collections of data loggers and remote sensing to study temporal and spatial gradients in forest microclimate [10, 12, 13].”
The emission factor of volatile isoprenoids: stress, acclimation, and developmental responses (2010, background): “particular,MA strongly increases in developing leaves, and somewhat decreases in senescing leaves (Grassi and Magnani, 2005; Niinemets et al., 2004; Wilson et al., 2001).”
Evaluation of leaf features in forest trees: Methods, techniques, obtainable information and limits (2015, background): “The ources of variation depend on the vertical (height), horizontal outer or inner branches) and azimuthal (aspect) position of the eaves and branches within the crown (Casella and Ceulemans, 002; Niinemets et al., 2004; Yoshimura, 2010).”
Causes and consequences of variation in leaf mass per area (LMA): a meta-analysis. (2009, background): “Generally, evidence shows that it is not instantaneous peak irradiance, but rather the total photon irradiance integrated over the day (DPI) that determines the LMA of a plant (Chabot et al., 1979; Niinemets et al., 2004).”
Structural determinants of leaf light-harvesting capacity and photosynthetic potentials (2006, background): “In mature non-senescent leaves, changes in leaf functioning occur relatively slowly ( Niinemets et al. 2004c ), but the decrease in leaf assimilation potentials is fast during senescence due to regulated dismantling of cell organelles and resorption of N (Kitajima et al. 1997, 2002; Wilson et al. 20”
Generality and specificity in light harvesting, carbon gain capacity and shade tolerance among plant functional groups (2009, background): “decline in Nm of the leaves in deciduous tree-canopy due to senescence occurs in autumn at the end of the growing season (Niinemets et al., 2004) but our measurements were made in July and hence no effect of senescence can be”
Why do evergreen trees dominate the Australian seasonal tropics (2005, background): “Photosynthesis is most efficient in young, fully expanded leaves (e.g. Reich et al. 1991; Niinemets et al. 2004), and thus plants that flush before the rains are able to optimise their photosynthesis during the early wet season, and also to lengthen their annual period”
