Cultural advice

The Australian National University acknowledges, celebrates and pays our respects to the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people of the Canberra region and to all First Nations Australians on whose traditional lands we meet and work, and whose cultures are among the oldest continuing cultures in human history.

Abstract

The ratio of leaf intercellular to ambient CO2 (chi) 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 required to model terrestrial C uptake. We use optimization criteria based on the growth environment to generate predicted values of photosynthetic and water-use efficiency traits and test these against a unique dataset.
