The phrase "higher leaf area" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to botany, agriculture, or environmental science when discussing plant growth or photosynthesis efficiency.
Example: "Plants with a higher leaf area tend to absorb more sunlight, leading to increased growth rates."
Alternatives: "increased leaf area" or "greater leaf area."
Under CPE25, tomato crop recorded significantly higher leaf area index (LAI) over CPE50 and rainfed condition.
This occurs because Picea spp. forests have a higher leaf area than Fagus spp. forests.
YTH323 had a higher leaf area index than IR64 and IR65564-44-51 undry soilhtly dry soil conditions and under a range of nitrogen conditions.
Coniferous forest types are subjected to higher N deposition due to their higher Leaf Area Index (LAI), evergreen character and higher collecting efficiency of needles compared to leaves.
The sweet sorghum had higher leaf area index (LAI) and plant height than both Yudan 8 and Denghai 9 corn varieties because of its characteristic lateness.
Regions with higher leaf area are thus expected to attract winds from areas with lower leaf area (Makarieva et al. 2013).
This may not be a problem when all species have very low k H values, but it could lead to biased estimates where the taller species within a given layer have higher leaf areas or higher extinction coefficients.
The contribution of the weeds in the total dry matter and soil N acquisition was higher in the pea sole crop than in the other treatments, in spite of the higher leaf areas in the pea crops.
It was also noteworthy that in spite of higher leaf areas in the shaded vines, the total CO2 fixation per shoot, integrated over all leaves, was higher (15.4 58 μmol (CO2) shoot−1 s−1 at 42 and 83 DAB, respectively) in exposed than in shaded vines (12.8 21.8 μmol (CO2) shoot−1 s−1).
This implies the increase of more plant biomass and high leaf area index due to increased canopy.
Since plants are stationary having large size and high leaf area, they are prone to exposure to a wide range of nanoparticles available in their surrounding environment [39].
