Unexpectedly large impact of forest management and grazing on global vegetation biomass

TL;DR: It is shown, using state-of-the-art datasets, that vegetation currently stores around 450 petagrams of carbon, in the hypothetical absence of land use, which implies that trade-offs exist between conserving carbon stocks on managed land and raising the contribution of biomass to raw material and energy supply for the mitigation of climate change.

Chlorophyll fluorescence as a tool in cereal crop research

O. H. Sayed
- 01 Sep 2003 - 
TL;DR: The review gives a summary of some Chl fluorescence parameters currently used in studies of stress physiology of selected cereal crops, namely water stress, heat stress, salt stress, and chilling stress.

Productivity and photosynthetic efficiency of Spirulina platensis as affected by light intensity, algal density and rate of mixing in a flat plate photobioreactor

TL;DR: The effect of the rate of mixing on productivity of algal mass in relation to photon flux density and algal concentration was quantitatively evaluated in cultures of Spirulina platensis grown in a newly designed flat-plate photobioreactor, finding the higher the intensity of the light source, the higher became the optimal culture density.
Journal ArticleDOI

The slow reversibility of photosystem II thermal energy dissipation on transfer from high to low light may cause large losses in carbon gain by crop canopies: a theoretical analysis

TL;DR: These predictions suggest that the selection, or engineering, of genotypes capable of more rapid recovery from the photoprotected state would substantially increase carbon uptake by crop canopies in the field.

Plants and Microclimate, A Quantitative Approach to Environmental Plant Physiology

TL;DR: A quantitative approach to plant-environment interactions is presented in this paper, where a quantitative approach is used to quantify the plant's environment interactions, including radiation, heat, mass and momentum transfer, energy balance and evaporation.
