Intraspecific relationships among wood density, leaf structural traits and environment in four co-occurring species of Nothofagus in New Zealand. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Plant functional traits capture important variation in plant strategy and function. Recent literature has revealed that within-species variation in traits is greater than previously supposed.

Impact of Tree Leaf Area Density on Cooling and Ventilation of an Urban Neighborhood
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2023 Abstract The impact of trees during heat waves can be diverse, as their interaction with their surroundings depends on several parameters that modify shading, ventilation potential and transpiration rate. A multiscale coupled model is presented that allows the detailed analysis of the local impact of vegetation as a mitigation measure ...

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

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023 IntroductionA variety of plant traits, from architectural to the cellular level, have been connected to flammability, but intraspecific variability of plant traits (ITV) and components of flammability is poorly studied. The lack of knowledge about ITV of

Why Does Not the Leaf Weight-Area Allometry of Bamboos Follow the 3/2-Power Law?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 The principle of similarity (Thompson, 1917) states that the weight of an organism follows the 3/2-power law of its surface area and is proportional to its volume on the condition that the density is constant. However, the allometric relationship between

Leaf functional traits differentiation in relation to covering materials of urban tree pits
BMC Plant Biology, 2021 Background Understanding the ecological strategies of urban trees to the urban environment is crucial to the selection and management of urban trees. However, it is still unclear whether urban tree pit cover will affect plant functional traits.

Mapping forest leaf area density from multiview terrestrial lidar
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Abstract Terrestrial lidar data are known to be useful for estimating the three‐dimensional (3D) distribution of leaf area in forests. This type of product holds great potential for modelling canopy reflectance and light interception to study the links between ...
