Accurately assessing terrestrial gross primary productivity (GPP) is crucial for characterizing
the climate-carbon cycle. Remotely sensing the photochemical reflectance index (PRI) …

Interoception, the perception of internal bodily states, is thought to be inextricably linked to
affective qualities such as anxiety. Although interoception spans sensory to metacognitive …

The photosynthetic responses to the combined effect of drought and heat stress were
studied in leaves of 19-years-old European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) trees originating from …

Canopy accession strategies reveal much about tree life histories and forest stand
dynamics. However, the protracted nature of ascending to the canopy makes direct …

Water use efficiency (WUE) can be employed to characterize the carbon and water cycle of
ecosystems. However, little is known about spatial differences in WUE at the leaf (WUE Leaf) …

Forest functionality and productivity are directly related to canopy light interception and can
be affected by potential damage from high irradiance. However, the mechanisms by which …

The competitive equilibrium between deciduous and evergreen plant species to a large
extent depends on the intensity of the reduction in carbon gain undergone by evergreen …

Forest bathing is considered an economical, feasible, and sustainable way to solve human
sub-health problems caused by urban environmental degradation and to promote physical …

Sunflecks are transient patches of direct radiation that provide a substantial proportion of the
daily irradiance to leaves in the lower canopy. In this position, faster photosynthetic induction …

Plants produce specific terpenes, secondary metabolites conferring tolerance to biotic and
abiotic stresses. Our study aims to investigate the effects of altitude, light intensity and …
