Extending Fluspect to simulate xanthophyll driven leaf reflectance dynamics
Nastassia Vilfan,Christiaan van der Tol,Peiqi Yang,Rhys Wyber,Zbyněk Malenovský,Zbyněk Malenovský,Sharon A. Robinson,Wouter Verhoef +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the plant leaf radiative transfer model Fluspect (Fluspect-CX) is presented to reproduce the spectral changes in a wide band of green reflectance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Responses of Rainforest Understorey Plants to Excess Light during Sunflecks
TL;DR: There were large and rapid decreases in the proportion of open Photosystem II (PSII) centres, as indicated by qP, on illumination with saturating light and a concurrent increase in non-photochemical quenching in all three understorey species following exposure to saturating Photon flux density (PFD) during sunflecks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change manipulations show Antarctic flora is more strongly affected by elevated nutrients than water
TL;DR: The authors investigated the likely impacts of a wetter climate on Antarctic terrestrial communities and identified some communities that may be better able to adapt and prosper under ameliorating conditions associated with a warmer, wetter future climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Not just about sunburn – the ozone hole's profound effect on climate has significant implications for Southern Hemisphere ecosystems
TL;DR: The objective of this synthesis was to stimulate the ecological community to look beyond ultraviolet-B radiation when considering the impacts of ozone depletion, as widespread changes in Southern Hemisphere climate are likely to have had as much or more impact on natural ecosystems and food production over the past few decades.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of the Alternative Pathway to Respiration during Thermogenesis in Flowers of the Sacred Lotus
TL;DR: The hypothesis that increased flux through the alternative pathway is responsible for heating in the lotus and that it is unlikely that uncoupling proteins, which would have produced increased fluxes through the cytochrome pathway, contribute significantly to heating in this tissue is supported.
