e0“The spatial and physical characteristics of foliage varied systematically with canopy height in a broad-leaved evergreen forest of Nothofagus solandri var. cliffortioides (Hook.f.) Poole (mountain beech) in the Craigieburn Range, South Island, New Zealand”
e4“Mistletoe (Alepisflavida [Hook.f.] Tiegh) was present in the canopy and had a leaf area index of 0-14, and a stem silhouette area index of 0-02”
e5“Total beech and mistletoe foliage biomass was 1183 and 36g m-2 respectively and total beech and mistletoe foliage nitrogen mass was 12 3 and 037g m2”

- Association Leaf inclination angle, leaf weight per unit area and leaf nitrogen concentration decreased with canopy depth
- Association Leaf photosynthetic capacity and leaf reflectance decreased with canopy depth
- Mechanism Depth-related leaf changes are expected to give greater canopy carbon gain
