Leaf resistance responses in selected conifers interpreted with a model simulating transpiration

Creator:

Running, Steven William

Abstract:

The resistance of a leaf to molecular gaseous diffusion is an important physiological response. Control of leaf resistance enables a plant to control its transpired water loss and regulates photosynthesis. Four study sites representing a gradient in available moisture and evaporative demand, were chosen in western Oregon for the study...

A computer simulation model of seasonal transpiration in Douglas-fir based on a model of stomatal resistance

Creator:

Reed, Kenneth Lee, 1942-

Abstract:

Four study sites were selected along an altitudinal gradient on Mt. Ashland in the Siskiyou Mountains of southern Oregon. The altitudinal gradient roughly corresponded to a gradient in temperature and water availability ranging from very hot and dry to cool and moist. Air and soil temperatures were continuously measured on...
