TL;DR: The present results indicate that high flexibilities in stomatal density and guard cell size will change in response to water status, and this process may be closely associated with photosynthesis and water use efficiency.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a light use efficiency (LUE) daily GPP model from eddy covariance (EC) measurements, which is driven by only four variables: normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), air temperature, and the Bowen ratio of sensible to latent heat flux (used to calculate moisture stress).

TL;DR: Understanding how plants response to episodic drought and watering pulse and the underlying mechanism is remarkably helpful to implement vegetation management practices in climatic changing.

TL;DR: The results indicate that severe water stress might exacerbate the adverse effects of high temperature, and their combination might reduce the plant productivity and distribution range of L. chinensis in the future.

TL;DR: The results indicate that gross ecosystem productivity (GEP), ecosystem respiration (ER), and netcosystem productivity (NEP) of terrestrial ecosystems in China showed a significantly latitudinal pattern, declining linearly with the increase of latitude, but GEP, ER, and NEP did not present a clear longitudinal pattern.
