The LEMONTREE team and invited guests recently met at Dartington Hall to explore how Eco-Evolutionary Optimality theory can simplify and strengthen Land Surface Models.

Written Summary: Plants need water to grow, but plants in arid climates generally use water more conservatively even in wet conditions and adjust their carbon uptake as soil moisture declines. We use...

LEMONTREE’s latest research enhances the NOAH-MP land surface model by integrating dynamic acclimation processes, improving carbon cycle simulations. This advancement boosts the model’s accuracy and r...

The new scheme captures the observed temporal and spatial variations in Vcmax,25 and R25 that are not considered in the standard scheme The new scheme improves photosynthesis and leaf respiration...

In this blog, LEMONTREE PI Prof Colin Prentice explores the latest advancements in the P-model, a powerful tool for predicting plant photosynthesis and gross primary production (GPP). Learn about its ...

Natural selection favors growth by selecting a combination of plant traits that maximize photosynthetic CO2 assimilation at the lowest combined carbon costs of resource acquisition and use. We quant...
