Other claims from this paper (11)
- Method / resource Calculated community photosynthesis light response matched the tendency of direct measurements.
- Observation Community photosynthesis light response saturated at about 40 Klx.
- Observation The saturation pattern persisted across LAI from 0.9 to 5.6.
- Observation Light receiving coefficient was below 1 under saturating incident light.
- Association Higher community LAI was associated with lower light receiving coefficient.
- Association Some leaves received increasingly intense light with higher incident light.
- Observation The area of leaves receiving sub-saturation light did not decrease above 30 or 40 Klx.
- Observation Mean light intensity of those leaves did not increase.
- Observation Photosynthetic rates of shaded leaves remained low.
- Association Photosynthetic intensity of other leaves increased until their single-leaf saturation point.
- Association The fraction of low-photosynthesis leaves increased with higher LAI.
