Comparison of models for daily light partitioning in multispecies canopies
A simulation model of light partitioning in horizontally homogeneous multispecies canopies is proposed. The model is based on the Kubelka–Munk equations (KM) applied to a mixture of N vegetation components. Only two hemispherical fluxes, i.e. downwards and upwards, are considered. The exact solution of KM equations was then simplified in such a way that the model can be easily extended to multi...
متن کاملExplaining growth of individual trees: Light interception and efficiency of light use by Eucalyptus at four sites in Brazil
The growth of wood in trees and forests depends on the acquisition of resources (light, water, and nutrients), the efficiency of using resources for photosynthesis, and subsequent partitioning to woody tissues. Patterns of efficiency over time for individual trees, or between trees at one time, result from changes in rates photosynthesis and shifts in the relative partitioning to wood. We measu...
متن کاملImproved light and temperature responses for light-use-efficiency-based GPP models
Gross primary production (GPP) is the process by which carbon enters ecosystems. Models based on the theory of light use efficiency (LUE) have emerged as an efficient method to estimate ecosystem GPP. However, problems have been noted when applying global parameterizations to biome-level applications. In particular, model–data comparisons of GPP have shown that models (including LUE models) hav...
متن کاملLight interception and radiation use efficiency response to narrow-wide row planting patterns in maize
The light deficiency in the canopy is not the main factor limiting maize (Zea mays L.) production but the lower radiation use efficiency (RUE). Conservation tillage planting patterns were used to construct a sustainable agricultural system for soil protection and higher RUE. On these bases, we tried to create more uniform light distribution in crop canopy for increasing radiation use efficiency...
