Worldwide measurements of nearly 130C3 species covering all
major plant functional types are analysed in conjunction with
model simulations to determine the effects of mesophyll
conductance (gm) on photosynthetic parameters and their
relationships estimated from A/Ci curves. We find that an
assumption of infinite gm results in up to 75%...
Surface transient storage (STS) and hyporheic transient storage (HTS) have
functional significance in stream ecology and hydrology. Both provide refugia for aquatic
communities and their longer mean residence times (compared to the main flow) increase
the potential for biogeochemical reactions that can improve water quality. As STS and
HTS have...
