Contrasting regulation of leaf gas exchange of semi-arid tree species under repeated drought Open
Predicting how plants respond to drought requires an understanding of how physiological mechanisms and drought response strategies occur, as these strategies underlie rates of gas exchange and productivity. We assessed the response of elev…

The validity of optimal leaf traits modelled on environmental conditions Open
Summary The ratio of leaf intercellular to ambient CO 2 ( χ ) is modulated by stomatal conductance ( g s ). These quantities link carbon (C) assimilation with transpiration, and along with photosynthetic capacities ( V cmax and J max ) are…

Speculations on the application of foliar <sup>13</sup> C discrimination to reveal groundwater dependency of vegetation and provide estimates of root depth and rates of groundwater use Open
Groundwater-dependent vegetation is globally distributed, having important ecological, social, and economic value. Along with the groundwater resources upon which it depends, this vegetation is under increasing threat through excessive rat…

Disentangling Climate and LAI Effects on Seasonal Variability in Water Use Efficiency Across Terrestrial Ecosystems in China Open
Water use efficiency (WUE), the ratio of gross primary productivity (GPP) over evapotranspiration (ET), is a critical ecosystem function. However, it is difficult to distinguish the individual effects of climatic variables and leaf area in…

Bridging Thermal Infrared Sensing and Physically‐Based Evapotranspiration Modeling: From Theoretical Implementation to Validation Across an Aridity Gradient in Australian Ecosystems Open
Thermal infrared sensing of evapotranspiration ( E ) through surface energy balance (SEB) models is challenging due to uncertainties in determining the aerodynamic conductance ( g A ) and due to inequalities between radiometric ( T R ) and…

A continental‐scale assessment of variability in leaf traits: Within species, across sites and between seasons Open
Plant species show considerable leaf trait variability that should be accounted for in dynamic global vegetation models ( DGVM s). In particular, differences in the acclimation of leaf traits during periods more and less favourable to grow…

Differences in osmotic adjustment, foliar abscisic acid dynamics, and stomatal regulation between an isohydric and anisohydric woody angiosperm during drought Open
Species are often classified along a continuum from isohydric to anisohydric, with isohydric species exhibiting tighter regulation of leaf water potential through stomatal closure in response to drought. We investigated plasticity in stoma…
