Stomatal Function across Temporal and Spatial Scales: Deep-Time Trends, Land-Atmosphere Coupling and Global Models

Plant Physiol. 2017 Jun;174(2):583-602. doi: 10.1104/pp.17.00287. Epub 2017 Apr 26.

Abstract

Simulating global fluxes of water, carbon, and energy at the land surface requires accurate and versatile models of stomatal conductance, currently represented by structurally similar and interchangeable forms that share weaknesses at environmental extremes.
