Research Abstract

The mathematical product of leaf's lifetime photosynthesis and annual leaf production can give the estimate of annual CO2 absorption by a forest. This new method was applied to actual forest stands and tested, which revealed the method is reliable. A new concept of leaf's lifetime performance was extended to leaf lifetime herbivory.
