In some woody plants, adjusting leaf size (via epidermal cell size) balances water supply (veins) with transpirational demand (stomata). However, it is unclear whether this is a general pattern among plant species...
Climate change has altered the spring phenology of many temperate plants, with important ecological consequences. However, studies of phenological shifts are generally restricted to field observations or remote-sensing...
Gill et al. conduct a meta-analysis of studies that report the timing of autumn leaf senescence in the northern hemisphere and show that increased temperatures are associated with larger senescence delays at low...
