Reconciling the optimal and empirical approaches to modelling stomatal conductance (2011, methodology): “Therefore, because there is no change in the parameter value between treatments, we can conclude that there was no acclimation of stomatal conductance to CO2 enrichment in this FACE experiment (cf. Medlyn et al. 2001).”
Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide: plants FACE the future. (2004, background): “There have been thousands of experimental studies evaluating the response of vegetation to the increases in atmospheric [CO 2] expected to occur over this century; these have been summarized in several reviews (2, 28, 30, 40, 88, 100, 129, 131, 165, 207).”
The likely impact of elevated [CO2], nitrogen deposition, increased temperature and management on carbon sequestration in temperate and boreal forest ecosystems: a literature review. (2007, background): “…and the results from short-term studies with seedlings, field studies with saplings, and longer-term, whole-stand manipulations have been reviewed previously (Ceulemans & Mousseau, 1994; Curtis & Wang, 1998; Norby et al., 1999; Gielen & Ceulemans, 2001; Medlyn et al., 2001; Norby et al., 2005).”
Hydraulic and environmental limitations to leaf water relations in trees with respect to canopy position (2006, background): “…herbaceous and woody species have confirmed that elevated CO2 concentration could significantly reduce the stomatal conductance and transpiration of plants (Saxe et al., 1998; Medlyn et al., 2001; Bunce et al., 2004), allowing more economical water use in some forest stands (Schäfer et al., 2002).”
The response of photosynthesis and stomatal conductance to rising [CO2]: mechanisms and environmental interactions. (2007, background): “Only in water-stressed Phillyrea angustifolia was acclimation of gs detected (Medlyn et al. 2001).”
What have we learned from 15 years of free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE)? A meta-analytic review of the responses of photosynthesis, canopy properties and plant production to rising CO2. (2004, background): “The decrease in gs with elevated [CO2] was consistent with previously reported decreases in gs for European tree species (Medlyn et al., 2001).”
A hydraulic model to predict drought-induced mortality in woody plants: an application to climate change in the Mediterranean. (2002, background): “Elevated CO2 may reduce leaf-level transpiration (Drake et al. 1997, Medlyn et al. 2001) and/or increase the hydraulic conductivity of the xylem per unit of leaf area (Heath et al. 1997, Maherali & DeLucia 2000).”

The peaked response of transpiration rate to vapour pressure deficit in field conditions can be explained by the temperature optimum of photosynthesis (2014, background): “…the T 325 optimum for E. Targeted experiments where D, T and [CO2] are carefully controlled, and 326 varied in tandem or alone, will help clarify these relationships to the peaked response of E to 327 D. 328 It is well known that elevated Ca can lead to a decrease in gs and E (Medlyn et al., 2001).”
Differential responses to changes in growth temperature between trees from different functional groups and biomes: a review and synthesis of data. (2010, background): “…respond to other environmental conditions have been noted: stomatal conductance is more responsive to elevated CO2 in broad-leaved trees than in evergreen conifers (Medlyn et al. 2001), and the same may be true for temperature, although there were not enough studies to determine if this was true.”
