Sentence examples for leaf temperature from inspiring English sources
As the water freezes on the plant leaves, it loses heat that is absorbed by the plant leaves, maintaining leaf temperature at 32° F (0° C).
The relative concentrations of oxygen and carbon dioxide within the chloroplasts as well as leaf temperature determine whether oxygenation or carboxylation is favoured.
The upward inclined leaf type reduced post-noon leaf temperature more than pre-noon leaf temperature and showed negative leaf temperature adjustment over time while the downward inclined leaf type showed a positive Δ.
In the upper part of the crown, the leaf temperature gradient was smaller than for the whole crown, and the leaf temperature values were more randomly distributed.
Basically, leaf temperature corresponds to air temperature ([Harley et al., 1985]).
This effect could be related to the lower leaf temperature recorded in sheltered seedlings.
As drought developed, the model reproduced realistic differences between leaf temperature and air temperature dynamics.
Although there was a linear correction between leaf temperature and photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD), no correlations were found between stomatal conductance (gs) and PPFD, gs and leaf temperature.
The combined effect of high leaf temperature and VPD could induce an increase in transpiration rate in order to maintain a favorable leaf temperature through evaporative cooling (Youssef and Saenger [1998]).
This implies that a shortage of water produces two important physiological responses: in leaf temperature and in transpiration.
