Assessments of CO2 Assimilation on a Per-leaf-area Basis are Related to Total Leaf Area [PDF]
Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 2007 Net photosynthetic rates often are dependent on leaf size when expressed on a leaf-area basis (CO 2 assimilation as μmol·m −2 ·s −1 ).

Consistent responses of vegetation gas exchange to elevated atmospheric CO2 emerge from heuristic and optimization models [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2022 Elevated atmospheric CO2 concentration is expected to increase leaf CO2 assimilation rates, thus promoting plant growth and increasing leaf area. It also decreases stomatal conductance, allowing water savings, which have been hypothesized to drive large ...

European Journal of Agronomy, 2022 Methods for accurately estimating within-field yield are essential to improve site-specific crop management and resource use efficiencies, which would be a major step toward sustainable intensification of agricultural systems. We set out to assess the accuracy of within-field soybean yields predicted by two data assimilation methods and to assess these

The Joint Assimilation of Remotely Sensed Leaf Area Index and Surface Soil Moisture into a Land Surface Model [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2022 This work tests the hypothesis that jointly assimilating satellite observations of leaf area index and surface soil moisture into a land surface model improves the estimation of land vegetation and water variables. An Ensemble Kalman Filter is used to test this hypothesis across the Contiguous United States from April 2015 to December 2018.

Leaf Nitrogen Traits in Response to Plant Density and Nitrogen Supply in Oilseed Rape
Agronomy, 2020 Understanding the response of plant nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) economies in oilseed rape, as well as their role in defining phenotypic plasticity, is necessary for designing new strategies to optimize plant and canopy C assimilation to improve potential

Variable Fall Climate Conditions on Carbon Assimilation and Spring Phenology of Young Peach Trees
Plants, 2020 Variable fall temperature and moisture conditions may alter leaf senescence of deciduous fruit trees, influencing carbon assimilation before dormancy and phenology the following spring.

The influence of assimilating leaf area index in a land surface model on global water fluxes and storages [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2019 Abstract. Vegetation plays a fundamental role not only in the energy and carbon cycles but also in the global water balance by controlling surface evapotranspiration (ET). Thus, accurately estimating vegetation-related variables has the potential to improve our understanding and estimation of the dynamic interactions between the water, energy, and ...

Growth index in massai grass under different levels of nitrogen fertilization
Revista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2011 This study aimed to evaluate the growth index of massai grass during two regrowth cycles in a greenhouse under five levels of nitrogen (0, 150, 300, 450 and 600 mg N/dm³ of soil) and eight growth ages (5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23 and 26 days) in a split ...
