Following Photons Through Forests (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

This volume offers a fresh, innovative perspective on plant-photon interactions. With its overarching theme of following photons through forests, the volume features clusters of chapters dedicated to: (i) tracking photons via measurement and modelling at the canopy scale, (ii) the harnessing of photons by plants and its temporal variation in relation to plant phenology, (iii) the utilization of photons as dependent on plant functional state, and (iv) future directions for studying radiation ecology and forest ecosystem services in the context of human health. This volume is thus unique by bridging photon physics with the ecological dimension of photon receipt and utilization in forests as well as illustrating emerging interactions among trees, photons, and people in the Anthropocene. Integrative review chapters provide a new lens for future photon research in forests. This ambitious volume will appeal to academics in diverse fields, including ecology, physics, biogeochemistry, geography, and plant sciences.
