Abstract:Remote sensing (RS) models can easily estimate the net primary productivity (NPP) on a large scale. The majority of RS models try to couple the effects of temperature, water, stand age, and CO2 concentration to attenuate the maximum light use efficiency (LUE) in the NPP models. The water effect is considered the most unpredictable, significant, and challenging. Because the stomata of alpine plants are less sensitive to limiting water vapor loss, the typically employed atmospheric moisture deficit or canopy wat… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
