Adjustment of a turbulent boundary layer to a 'canopy' of roughness elements [PDF]
A model is developed for the adjustment of the spatially averaged time-mean flow of a deep turbulent boundary layer over small roughness elements to a canopy of larger three-dimensional roughness elements.

Does canopy angle influence radiation use efficiency of sugar beet? [PDF]
Sugar beet varieties differ greatly in their canopy architecture and can be classified into canopy types according to their petiole angle. Leaf angle is one of the key factors which determines the efficiency with which plant canopies utilise incident and

High‐elevation endemic plants predicted to lose habitat from changing climate in Washington State
Abstract Premise High‐elevation plants face unique challenges from potential climate change impacts that will likely require upslope migration into increasingly smaller suitable habitat. This situation is particularly acute for endemic species that by definition occupy small geographic ranges.

The Vertical Distribution of Ants on Canopy Trees in a Bornean Lowland Rain Forest [PDF]
The species composition of ants attracted to sugar baits was compared between four vertical levels of eleven canopy trees in a mixed dipterocarp forest in Sarawak, Malaysia.

Hydraulic function of medullary bundles in a tropical root climber
Abstract Premise Medullary bundles, which are vascular bundles in the pith, have evolved multiple times. However, their functional significance remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated how medullary bundles are involved in the vascular architecture and hydraulic function in a tropical root climber, Adelobotrys scandens (Melastomataceae) to ...

Abstract Premise There is a knowledge gap regarding how foliar injury and restricted water uptake can be detected by measuring root dielectric response. This pot study nondestructively evaluated the efficiency of real‐time dielectric measurement to monitor the effects of glyphosate spraying.

Comparison of four different programs for the analysis of hemispherical photographs using parameters of canopy structure and solar radiation transmittance [PDF]
There have been many studies involving the use of hemispherical photographs to indirectly estimate canopy structures and forest light environments.

Turning a new leaf: PhenoVision provides leaf phenology data at the global scale
Abstract Premise Plant phenology dictates many aspects of community function and ecosystem dynamics. Yet, global phenology data are still limited, especially in areas lacking monitoring programs. Here we present a new data resource, PhenoVision–Leaf, which extends a computer vision pipeline utilizing iNaturalist digital image vouchers to produce global‐

Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...
