Simulating gross primary productivity of humid-temperate pastures
Although most pasture growth models simulate many above- and belowground components of the plant community, calibration and validation are usually based only on periodic measurements of aboveground forage yield. This research used daily measurements of gross primary productivity (GPP) to validate the photosynthesis subroutine of the Integrated Farm System Model (IFSM). The model was calibrated ...

Soil CO2 Flux Measurements: Comparisons Between the LI-COR LI-6400 and LI-8100
Introduction The basic design features of LI-COR soil CO2 flux chambers were first published by Norman et. al., (1992), and the various factors known to influence the measurement of ground CO2 flux were summarized in LI-COR Application Note #124 and Welles, et. al., (2001). One of these factors is the concentration of CO2 in the chamber head space relative to the ambient atmospheric CO2 ...

How to analyze photosynthesis in plants: Methods and tools
Life as we know it would be impossible without photosynthesis. Outside of providing the essential elements that support life on earth, photosynthesis is of special importance to the food and agriculture industry, as well as for ecologists studying climate change. In addition, there are many commercial enterprises which depend heavily on photosynthesis. As a result, there are a plethora of methods ...

Detecting salinity stress in crops
Salinity inhibits growth and development in crops. Due to the extent of damage salinity causes to agriculture, it is identified as a major threat to food production. Therefore, practices to deal with the effects of salinity on crops are receiving a lot of attention. To be able to provide proper recommendations that are also sustainable, it is first necessary to find out how salinity affects ...
